This year's meeting of the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology (AAAAI), held in San Francisco over March 18th through the 22nd, attracted over 7,000 participants from around the world, including clinicians, academics, allied health professionals, and others interested in allergic and immunologic disease. The conference highlighted recent advances in allergy and immunology research, with presentations also focusing on other developments in allergy, asthma, and immunologic diseases.

Host: Gary Epstein

Guest: Kimberly Avila Edwards, MD

An obese child has an 80 percent chance of staying obese throughout their lifetime. The children that Texas pediatrician Dr. Kimberly Avila Edwards saw in her practice, combined with statistics showing her home state had an even higher childhood obesity rate than the already-high national average, prompted Dr. Avila Edwards to leave her general pediatric practice to devote herself to the fight against childhood obesity. In her conversation with host Gary Epstein, Dr. Avila Edwards notes she was completely unprepared by medical school to deal with obesity, and its related health problems, in children. They discuss Dr. Avilla Edwards' efforts to collaborate, and in some cases create her own resources, in order to work with children and their families.

This week's guest was nominated by the
Texas Medical Association — America's largest state medical association.
