The 12th Food Allergy Study Day (10 year anniversary event)
The RSM and Allergy Academy’s hugely popular food allergy study day is back for its 12th year. This exciting course marks the 10 year anniversary since the foundation of the Allergy Academy so we will be in celebratory mood as we bring you our programme of lectures delivered by experts in the field. It is aimed at all health care professionals who see children and adults with food allergy as part of their practice.

Is the current published guidance for milk allergy being delivered in clinic practice?
Do co-factors alter nut allergy reaction thresholds in clinical practice?
How should we prioritise risk management when managing patients with food allergy?
Objectives:
