FARE Virtual Contains: Courage Research Retreat
In the past this event was for food allergy researchers, but this year we are adding general sessions where our community can engage in important conversations with key medical experts and researchers in the food allergy space. 

Additional Online Education
The Consortium of Eosinophilic Gastrointestinal Disease Researchers (CEGIR) has produced a series of educational videos for healthcare providers about eosinophilic GI disease. These videos do not offer continuing education credit. They can be viewed on the Rare Clinical Diseases Research Network website.

Clinical Resources
AAAAI Statements and Practice Parameters reflect the most current guidance available from the AAAAI on clinical topics related to allergies, asthma and immunologic disease.

Food Allergy Resources including an overview, explanation of symptoms and diagnosis, treatment and mangement, an action plan, information for patients, and more.
