AAAAI - Allergy, Asthma & Immunology Education and Research Trust (ART)

"Many junior faculty in allergy / immunology attempting to make the transition to independent funding in the U.S. find it difficult to find funding for such efforts. The award definitely helped me make the transition to become a productive and independent investigator and academician. Having now established a foothold, I hope that good work on my part will follow. I am so grateful for the ERT’s support. It has made a difference for me and is reflected in my career’s work.
