Junior Members Corner



Dear Juniors,
Meet two of the new EAACI JM representatives:



Dr. Bianca Olivieri has been elected as the new Junior Member (JM) Representative of the Food Allergy Interest Group. She is a specialist in Allergy and Clinical Immunology, having completed her residency at the Allergy and Clinical Immunology Department of the University of Verona, Italy. Currently, Dr. Olivieri works at the Allergy and Asthma Unit of Verona University Hospital. She is actively involved in the Food Allergy and Oral Food Challenges Outpatient Clinic. The Allergy Department, chaired by Professor Gianenrico Senna, is renowned for its scientific contributions in various allergy fields, including drug allergy, hymenoptera venom allergy, and mastocytosis under Dr. Patrizia Bonadonna's leadership; chronic rhinosinusitis and nasal polyps with Dr. Michele Schiappoli; and severe asthma and eosinophilic diseases with Dr. Marco Caminati.


Dr Fabio Ryser is the newly elected JM Representative for the ENT Section. He is a resident physician at the Department of Rheumatology and Immunology at the University Hospital of Bern, Switzerland specialising in type 2 inflammation, connective tissue diseases and autoinflammatory disorders. Under the supervision of PD Dr Steiner, his research focuses on diffuse type 2 chronic rhinosinusitis and the incorporation of machine learning into routine diagnostics. The research group works in a highly interdisciplinary way, collaborating with Prof. Dr Soyka from the Department of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology and Prof. Dr Brugger from the Department of Infectious Diseases at the University Hospital Zurich. He will bring a new multidisciplinary approach to the team and a focus on new methodologies for high precision medicine.

Best regards,
The Junior Member Assembly


EAACI Patients Organisation Committee Corner



The POC Reunion in the Annual Congress 2023



The POC has been participating in the EAACI Annual Congresses and focused meetings such as FAAM and PAAM since 2011. When Covid-19 pandemic and strict public health measures started in 2020, POC members continued attending the EAACI events virtually. For the first time in a long while, the POC returned to in-person participation in the Annual Congress Hamburg 2023.

Fifteen members of the committee attended the Annual Congress 2023 in-person. The special session ESS1 which was completely organised by the POC took place on the first day of the Congress with great success. Session was designed to discuss the “Benefits of engaging with patients in clinical trials and decision-making” with different stakeholders.

Giulia Gabrielli from European Medicine Agency (EMA) shared the framework for engagement between the Agency and the patients. Dr Kirsten Perrett, Director of Australia National Allergy Centre of Excellence, shared their experience in receiving the federal funding for allergy prevention and management in collaboration with the POC member Allergy & Anaphylaxis Australia. Susanna Palkonen, Director of European Federation of Allergy and Airways Diseases Patients Associations (EFA) presented their long-lasting track record in participation to research projects. POC Member Mikaela Odemyr, President of Asthma and Allergy Association Sweden shared her experience as a patient representative in participating the research design and planning process.

The session chairs were Carla Jones, CEO of Allergy UK, past POC Co-Chair and Ozlem Ceylan, President of Living with Allergy Association, current POC Chair. The session also had a panel discussion where chairs invited the audience to share their experiences and best practises.

Additionally, POC members Sabine Schnadt (DAAB-Germany) presented “Managing the risk of patients with peanut allergy: the value of thresholds of reaction” in the industry session, Patricia Carmelo and Carolina Olivares (Fundacion Creciendo con Alergias Alimenarias-Chile) had two poster presentations; “Food Allergens that trigger anaphylaxis in children in Chile” and “Adrenaline Auto-injector in Chile, National Survey 2020”.

Several POC members attended the Beat Allergy Run & Walk on the 10th of June. The event was organised to contribute on providing much-needed aid as the collected funds were sent to those affected by the earthquakes in Turkey.

The POC believes the conferences and in-person meetings are useful in staying up to date with new developments in medicine, dissemination of knowledge, enabling interaction with opinion leaders, networking, developing consensus, and adoption of newer ideas relevant to the patient community. Going forward, committee members consider hybrid conventions a decent opportunity to increase accessibility and inclusivity. In 2024, POC is planning to attend the Annual Congress in Valencia and FAAM in Athens.
