Funded Activity Summary

With such a dramatic rise in food allergy, and many infants now showing established food-sensitization before starting complimentary foods at 4-6 months, there is a pressing need to define events around much earlier allergen encounter. This project addresses critical questions that form an essential platform for earlier strategies to prevent the rising burden of food allergy and other allergic diseases.
