Overview

The 2025 Symposium Update in Allergy and Immunology & Rhinoscopy Hands-On-Workshop is a state-of-the-art conference covering a variety of topics related to allergic and immunologic diseases. Some of these include eosinophilic disorders, angioedema, food allergies, dermatologic conditions, rhinoscopy, asthma and its comorbid conditions, immunodeficiency, as well as fungal rhinosinusitis and vocal cord dysfunction. Clinicians and other health care professionals will learn practical approaches to issues related to allergic and immunologic diseases seen in both specialty and primary care clinics.
