CENTRE OF RESEARCH EXCELLENCE IN ERADICATING FOOD ALLERGY: PREVENTION, CURE AND REDUCING ADVERSE EVENTS

Abstract

Australia has the highest reported rate of food allergy in the world. We aim to eradicate food allergy through improved prevention and cure, supported by evidence generated by our collaborative network of research. In addition, we aim to help prevent children with food allergy having anaphylaxis through improved public health policy and clinical pathways. As a second wave of the allergy epidemic, we are well positioned to turn back the tide of this newly emergent health threat to the public.
