Where this comes from

Abstract

Allergy and immunology emerged as a distinct research area and clinical specialty in the early 20th century. As the 21st century approaches, the evolution of clinical and academic life in American medicine produces unique challenges for this field and its practitioners, educators, and investigators. How we reached our current state and a personal view of the future for the clinician and the academician in this field are discussed.
