Physician-Scientist and Attending Physician at the University of Pennsylvania and Children's Hospital of Philadelphia studying how #diet and #metabolism influence #immune #health and #inflammatory #disease.

The immunologic relationship between #IgE-mediated #food #allergy and #EoE has long been an unknown. I delve into this important topic in a new Perspective article out now in @aaaaiorg.bsky.social's Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology.

New paper just accepted at Science Translational Medicine!

Turns out that saturated dietary fats prime lung macrophages for IL-1β–driven inflammation—even in the absence of obesity!

Follow here to know as soon as it drops online!

📉 Did early allergen introduction reduce #FoodAllergy rates?

Our multi-year, multi-state study of >100K kids says YES.

Peanut and overall IgE-FA diagnoses dropped after early introduction guidelines.

📰 Coming soon in Pediatrics (@ameracadpeds.bsky.social) #Pediatrics #Allergy

Very excited to give Pediatric Grand Rounds tomorrow at Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital Stanford. Walking around the Stanford University campus today was also an exceptional treat!

How are immune responses regulated in #EoE? In short: #IFNg is bad and #Bregs are good!

Learn this and more in our new paper out soon in #Allergy!

This work will lay the foundation for improving regulation in #EoE.

BIG thanks to #FoodAllergyFund, #APFED, #AAAAI, #TheHartwellFund and our donors!
