I am sad to be missing parades in New Orleans but the #AAAAI25 meeting in San Diego is off to a great start this morning with a symposium on #ClimateChange. This includes amazing talk by Amber Hardeman, extraordinary allergy/immunogy fellow @tulanemedicine.bsky.social
The large screen next to a podium reads When the Storm Settles: helpful and harmful approaches to mitigation of flooding by Amber Hardeman Tulane allergy/immunology. To the right side of the screen is the podium behind which stands an African American woman smiling, perhaps embarrassed that I’m standing up taking her picture in front of a crowd like a proud parent that thinks that their own fellows are the very best. But she really is the best

Special issue of JACI:IP on #ClimateChange includes our article on mold mitigation after large flooding events, written in response to the queries I get from across the US. Collaboration with @tulanemedicine.bsky.social fellow, @tulaneu.bsky.social student and me doi.org/10.1016/j.ja...
This is a screenshot of the top of our article. The title in bold letters of the top reads mold, remediation, and homes after flooding. It then lists the three authors. Below this the text is in two columns. Near the bottom, you can see two paragraph headers and bold. One on the left reads climate change and increased flooding.On the bottom, right, you can see the heading that says health effects of mold exposure.
