Conference Description

The Food Allergy GRS provides a unique forum for young doctoral and post-doctoral researchers to present their work, discuss new methods, cutting edge ideas, and pre-published data, as well as to build collaborative relationships with their peers. Experienced mentors and trainee moderators will facilitate active participation in scientific discussion to allow all attendees to be engaged participants rather than spectators.

The Gordon Research Seminar on Food Allergy is a unique forum for graduate students, post-docs, and other scientists with comparable levels of experience and education to present and exchange new data and cutting edge ideas.The focus of this meeting is on discussing food allergy research with other trainees and early-career scientists, with mentorship from senior scientists in the field. There is a plethora of research being done to elucidate the mechanisms of how food allergy develops and potential ways to treat it, and the Gordon Research Seminar on Food Allergy aims to be a venue to showcase the variety of work being done. The meeting will feature poster sessions, talks focusing on the frontiers of food allergy research, and a career panel of senior researchers in the field.

Related Meeting

This GRS will be held in conjunction with the "Food Allergy" Gordon Research Conference (GRC). Those interested in attending both meetings must submit an application for the GRC in addition to an application for the GRS. Refer to the associated GRC program page for more information.
