Junior Members Corner
Dear Juniors,
The beginning of the new year brings us a lot of new meetings and opportunities to meet and learn about the most relevant scientific advances in the field! During the first months, members of the Junior Member Assembly (JMA) have participated in the EAACI Immunology Winter School 2025 in Schamlding, Austria (January 29 - February 2). This traditional winter school is designed specifically for Junior Members (JMs), providing an ideal platform to showcase their research. The meeting brought together attendees from over 15 countries, and featured 6 keynote speakers, 19 JM oral presentations, 49 posters and 5 hands-on sessions. The strong JM participation and the scientific program provided a comprehensive learning and networking experience, facilitating knowledge sharing and professional development for all attendees.
In February, also two JMA representatives have the opportunity and the great responsibility to attend the 2025 AAAAI/WAO Joint Congress held in San Diego, USA, and represent there all EAACI JMs. The always fruitful collaboration with our sister societies brings to both Academies important improvements in the knowledge of the fields of Allergy and Clinical Immunology through the preparation of educational resources, manuscripts, and different activities and collaborations. During the meeting, we had interesting discussions with our “Fellow-in-Training” colleagues, attended different lectures, symposia and courses organized by them, and enjoyed them very much! In addition, we participated in different talks and meetings organized there by our Academy.
See you at the next EAACI meetings and at the EAACI 2025 Congress in Glasgow!
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.
