Major Goals of Training Program
This program provides a well balanced experience in pediatric and adult allergy and immunology. The program is designed to give residents sufficient expertise to treat both children and adults with allergic and immunologic diseases. Pediatricians and internists may elect to concentrate in their own discipline to a maximum 67% of their total training experience, but equal time in both disciplines is encouraged. Both the pediatric and internal medicine experiences offer in-depth clinical training in the allergic diseases and immunodeficiency syndromes as well as autoimmune diseases. All residents are required to complete a clinical or basic research project, present at a national meeting, and publish their work in peer-reviewed journals.

The purpose of this program is to prepare physicians, who have completed training in either pediatrics or internal medicine, for certification in the sub-specialty of allergy and immunology, and to develop skills in all aspects of this specialty with particular emphasis on basic concepts and principles of allergy, immunology, and pulmonary pathophysiology; to sustain comprehensive and intensive training in clinical immunology and immunology; and introduction to and experience in basic research in these areas. The goal is to train physicians in both the clinical and research aspects of allergy and immunology and then to develop a generation of trainees competent as practitioners of the subspecialty of allergy and immunology and able to conduct basic and clinical research. The breadth of clinical and research opportunities at AECOM and its associated hospitals enables the fellow to undertake and sustain specific research programs simultaneously with education and training in the many aspects of clinical allergy and immunology. An implicit advantage is that the clinical or practical significance of research studies are continually apparent and reviewed throughout the fellowship program. The dual role of virtually all senior staff members of the program who conduct both research and clinical activities of relevance to allergy and immunology supports the accomplishment of these goals.

Email: arschneider@chpnet.org Major Goals of Training Program
The Allergy/Immunology program at The Long Island College Hospital is an independent Department working closely with the Departments of Internal Medicine, Pediatrics and Immunopathology. Only residents who are Board eligible in Pediatrics or Internal Medicine may enter the program. The program offers experience in a wide variety of allergic and immunologic problems in an urban setting. It is the larger of two training facilities that serve a population of about 3,000,000 people, situated in an area of Brooklyn, NY, where there is adequate private practice representation. Residents are required to prepare a research protocol and are required to complete at least one clinical research project for presentation and /or publication. Most of the research has been in the clinical areas of compliance in chronic asthma management and food allergy. Some bench research experience is available.

This is an integrated A&I program with significant cross-training in Pediatric and Adult Allergy and Clinical Immunology. Buffalo has had a long standing Allergy/Immunology training program that dates back more than 25 years. Our goals are three-fold: education, research and clinical service. All patients seen in the A&I program are service patients seen by the Fellows. Our areas of clinical strength are: asthma, allergic disorders, drug reactions, primary immunodeficiency diseases (children and adults); food and allergy and adult and pediatric autoimmune diseases. The Immunobiology Clinical Laboratory service is an integral part of our Division and educational programs. Our faculty is involved in a number of research projects, both clinical, and basic immunology. Fellows develop and complete their own research project(s).

Major Goals of Training Program
The objectives of this program are to provide the trainee with the experience, information, and attitudes which will allow him or her to become a skilled clinician and clinical scientist in the extremely broad arena into which the specialty of allergy/immunology has evolved. We intend to prepare the trainee to function as a subspecialist in primary, secondary, and tertiary care of patients with diseases involving the immunologic system; to enable the trainee to pass these skills on to others via clinical or academic teaching; and to enable the trainee to appreciate, interpret and perform research in Allergy and Clinical Immunology.
This program is predominantly based in the Department of Medicine, with most trainees having internal medicine backgrounds. The major clinical experience is in true clinical immunology, spanning the usual atopic disease spectrum as well as extensive exposure to a broad range of immunologically mediated diseases, including autoimmune diseases, vasculitis, and immunodeficiency states. Excellent pediatric cross training is provided by Drs. Robert Schwartz, Robert Holzhauer, Mariola Kubisca, and Clement Ren. The hospital operates a diagnostic Clinical Immunology Laboratory which provides most of the common immunologic assays for the medical center and the community, affording further opportunities for learning and a good source of material for clinical studies. We also offer a three-year combined training program in Allergy/Immunology and Rheumatology, since our unit combines both sub-specialties. Participation in the research activities of the unit is required of all trainees. An additional year or more of training in research skills is strongly encouraged for trainees considering an academic career. Trainees Accepted Each Year

Major Goals of Training Program
The mission of the WUH Allergy and Immunology Training Program (AITP) is to provide high quality, culturally competent, comprehensive health care services in a teaching and research environment which improves the health and well-being of patients with allergic and immunologic diseases. We offer a full complement of inpatient and outpatient services, with a deep commitment to medical education and research. http://www.winthrop.org.
The AITP at WUH is a conjoint effort between the Department of Medicine and the Department of Pediatrics. It is a 2 year training program designed to provide training to residents, which would qualify them to be active candidates to take the American Board of Allergy and Immunology certification examination and function as allergists and immunologists. The AITP faculty has special interest and strengths in cutaneous allergy and immunology, clinical immunology, angioedema, autoimmune diseases and vasculitis. Trainees Accepted Each Year
