Overview
The research goals of the Division of Allergy and Immunology at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center are to conduct basic and clinical studies into the causes of airway responses to allergen provocation. Research focuses on mechanisms of eosinophil trafficking and recruitment to the lung and gastrointestinal tract as well as genetic pre-disposition towards sensitization and allergic inflammatory response.
Researchers conducting clinical studies--in collaboration with outstanding researchers locally and internationally. Patient care activities revolve around the evaluation and treatment of children with asthma, food allergies and other allergic reactions.
