Research Nurse – Pediatrics

This is a unique opportunity to be a key contributor to the Systems Biology of Early Atopy (SUNBEAM) study, which is part of a network of researchers studying food allergy. The SUNBEAM study is focused on learning how many factors in early life can relate to asthma and food allergies. Food allergy affects approximately 5-10% of young children, with highest incidence in the first year of life. Food allergy accounts for almost $25 billion per year in U.S. costs. Atopic dermatitis (also known as eczema) is a major risk factor for food allergy and other allergic diseases, and atopic dermatitis has a significant intrinsic impact on child health. Currently, there is no reliable way to identify those infants destined to develop atopic disease who would benefit from targeted prevention strategies. The goal of this study is to establish a birth cohort that collects prenatal and early life bio-samples and environmental samples and rigorously phenotypes young children for food allergy and atopic dermatitis to identify prenatal and early life markers of high risk for food allergy and atopic dermatitis, as well as biological pathways (endotypes) that result in these conditions.
