For Fellows-in-Training Overview
For new fellows-in-training (FITs), congratulations on your choice of a career in allergy/immunology! You have chosen a great specialty with tremendous opportunities. For established FITs, welcome to a new year of training. This FIT page is a helpful guide to what the AAAAI has to offer you as a FIT. There are resources for both new fellows, and for those winding up their training. You will find information on becoming an in-training member of the AAAAI, applying for grants and awards, attending the AAAAI Annual Meeting, clinical resources and much more.
