Program Goals

Our Training Program is designed to prepare specialists who will provide expert medical care for patients with allergic and immunologic disorders, and who can serve as consultants, educators, and physician scientists in the areas of asthma, allergic disorders, immune deficiency diseases, and other immunologically mediated disorders.

The Fellows spend 50% of their time in clinical training where they are exposed to a variety of patients with allergic and immunologic conditions and 50% in basic and clinical science research and other activities such as didactic sessions and conferences. The program has been structured so the Fellows can benefit from the strengths of ACH/USF and other affiliated institutions. There is excellent integration between in- and out-patient experience, pediatric and adult patient populations, and patients with various allergic and immunologic conditions.
