We are continuing our series of interviewing thought leaders in the field of allergy and immunology. Dr. Gupta and Kortney sit down with Dr. Carla Davis, the president of the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology.

What we cover in this episode about Dr. Davis and the AAAAI

  • What the AAAAI is and why it matters to patients. A 7,000-member organization working behind the scenes to support allergy and immunology care across the US and around the world.
  • Dr. Davis's path to the presidency. From her early experiences advocating as a fellow to her major pivot from Baylor to Howard University, the journey that shaped her priorities.
  • Initiative: AAAAI Advocate. A new platform connecting patients and physicians directly to their legislators, making it easy to share your story and push for better access to allergy care.
  • Initiative: AAAAI AI Task Force. A dedicated group bringing AI tools into allergy care, including AAAAI Ignite, a Netflix-style platform that helps members find and curate personalized allergy content.
  • Initiative: The Collaborative Translational Mechanistic Research Seed Award. A $100,000 grant pairing laboratory scientists with clinical allergists to move new discoveries directly into patient care.
