As members of the EAACI Pediatric Section Board and chairs of PAAM 2015, we are more than happy to announce that the fourth PAAM will be held in Berlin, the capital of Germany, from 15-17 October 2015. Members of the local organising committee include Bodo Niggemann and Kirsten Beyer, both experts in the field of pediatric allergy.
Berlin is a culturally vibrant and multifaceted city which will surely facilitate a fruitful scientific exchange and important network opportunities between PAAM attendees. PAAM 2015 hopes to bring together pediatricians and primary care physicians who care passionately for the challenging scientific and clinical issues that relate to pediatric allergy and asthma.

General Info

The Pediatric Section of EAACI along with the local organising committee will endeavor to create a scientific programme covering contemporary aspects of asthma, food allergy, anaphylaxis, atopic eczema, immunotherapy and eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders. For example, new insights into immunological mechanisms that underpin successful tolerance inductions to foods will be presented; there will also be special emphasis on education hands-on workshops.

PAAM 2015 will be held at the Berlin Congress Centre (BCC) which is in the centre of the city near Alexanderplatz and is easily accessible by public transportation. Berlin can be reached by plane (Schönefeld and Tegel airport), train or car. Sustainability is a goal which we will try to respect during PAAM, making it exciting, fun and green.
We look forward to welcoming you to Berlin in 2015.
