2 Invitation to Participate Dear Colleagues, On behalf of the World Allergy Organization (WAO) Board of Directors, it is our great pleasure to invite you to participate in the WAO Symposium on Food Allergy and the Microbiome from 5-6 December 2015 in Miami, FL, United States. WAO warmly invites you to join us in this global scientific meeting. The purpose of this two day meeting, focusing on Food Allergy and the Microbiome, is to bring basic and translational scientists, clinical immunologists, allergists and researchers together to expand this exciting field. Attendance will be limited, making it the ideal setting for discussion and learning. The scientific program will consist of lectures from the top international experts in the field as well as free communications that will be presented during the Poster Sessions. Our aim is to summarize what is scientifically known, learn about the cutting-edge research and to reach a consensus about the unmet needs of Food Allergy and the Microbiome. For more information and regular updates on the WAO Symposium, please visit our website: We look forwarding to seeing you in Miami, FL, United States! Sincerely, Lanny J. Rosenwasser Symposium Chair President, WAO Mario Sanchez Borges Symposium Chair President-Elect, WAO About WAO The World Allergy Organization (WAO) is an international alliance of 95 regional and national allergy, asthma and clinical immunology societies. Through collaboration with the Member Societies, WAO provides a wide range of educational and outreach programs,symposia and lectureships to allergists/immunologists around the globe and conducts initiatives relating to clinical practice, service provision, and physician training in order to better understand and address the challenges facing allergists/immunologists worldwide.
