— -- We at Arkansas Children's Hospital Allergy Department are very excited about new developments in the field of food allergy and are involved in many of the programs related to adults and children with food allergy and trying to make a difference in developing new therapies.

Currently, we have ongoing clinical studies related to egg allergy and peanut allergy using a new form of oral immunotherapy. We are also involved in a National Institutes of Health-funded consortium known as a consortium of food allergy research that involves five clinical centers that have interest in a better understanding of children and adults with food allergy and developing new therapies.

If you're interested in contacting us, we would love to talk to you more about the programs that are ongoing, to be involved here or to refer you to someone in your region that may provide a new therapy for you.
