Singh Research Group

Anne Marie Singh, MD, is a professor of pediatrics, interim chief of the Division of Allergy, Immunology, and Rheumatology, and director of the Food Allergy Research and Education Clinical Research Center of Distinction. She also has affiliate appointments in the Departments of Dermatology and Medical Microbiology and Immunology and Food Research Institute. Singh completed her allergy-immunology fellowship at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

Her research program is focused on advancing the clinical care of patients with early life atopic diseases, including atopic dermatitis and food allergy, as well as mechanistic studies on how environmental and microbial exposures affect the development of allergic diseases. The goal of her work is to enhance the clinical care of atopic patients by both advancing clinical care and by understanding mechanisms of disease. She is currently leading the Childhood Allergy and NeOnatal Environment (CANOE) birth cohort study in the NIH Environmental Childhood Health Outcomes (ECHO) study. She also co-leads the UW site for the Systems Biology of Early Atopy (SUNBEAM) CoFAR study, in addition to her translational work.

Affiliations

UW–Food Research Institute

The Food Research Institute (FRI) is the portal to food safety at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. FRI’s mission is to catalyze multidisciplinary and collaborative research on microbial foodborne pathogens and toxins and to provide training, outreach, and service to enhance the safety of the food supply.

UW–Microbiology and Immunology

Founded in 1935, the mission of the Department of Medical Microbiology and Immunology is to provide comprehensive scientific instruction to students, conduct novel and meaningful research, and offer consultation and service in microbiology and immunology as they relate to human health and disease.

Childhood Allergy and the Neonatal Environment

The Childhood Allergy and the NeOnatal Environment (CANOE) study has selected the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health (UWSMPH) as one of 12 individual U.S. birth cohort sites that make up the Children’s Respiratory Environmental Workgroup (CREW) consortium.

Food Allergy Research and Education

Food and Allergy Research and Education (FARE) enhances the lives of individuals with food allergy by empowering them to lead safer, productive lives with the respect of others through education and advocacy initiatives and improved awareness around healthcare options and treatment.

Projects

Consortium for Food Allergy Research (CoFAR)

The Consortium for Food Allergy Research (CoFAR) was established in 2005 to support clinical research on food allergy. It has been renewed multiple times, most recently in 2024, to continue conducting clinical trials and observational studies on many aspects of food allergy.

ECHO study

The Environmental influences on Child Health Outcomes (ECHO) is dedicated to both learning what factors affect child health and to finding ways to enhance it. The goal of the ECHO study is to help understand and address how the environment and things that happen
