The goal of this project is to learn more about the relationship between intestinal permeability and peanut allergy in order to better diagnose, predict, and treat allergic reactions to peanut and other food allergies.<\/p>\n<p>The proposal builds on Dr. Steinbach\u2019s previous mucosal immunology research and clinical allergy training and integrates the expertise of her mentor team, Dr. Shehzad Sheikh, professor of medicine &amp; genetics in the UNC Divison of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, and Dr. Wesley Burks, Dean of the UNC School of Medicine. This work will add to the existing knowledge of a diverse group of diseases associated with increased IEC permeability and will foster the development of novel therapies targeting the intestines for severe allergic reactions.<\/p>\n<p>The NCI Mentored Clinical Scientist Research Career Development Award (K08) offers support for postdoctoral researchers and non-tenured junior faculty who are clinician-scientists.
