Last Friday, Iowa City’s Courtyard by Marriott hosted regional healthcare professionals to discuss developments within the Allergy/Immunology field. Fellows, nurses, nurse practitioners, pharmacists, physicians, physician assistants, residents, and students were welcome to the register for the event.

Focused on immune dysregulation, this CME was fittingly classified an “Immune Mutiny.” Despite the revolutionary title, the day’s itinerary did not devolve into chaos. Attendees remained engaged throughout the morning and afternoon sessions held in the Heights Rooftop Ballroom and Melrose Room. They also enjoyed a delicious breakfast and lunch, as well as opportunities to socialize with healthcare peers in-between the day’s presentations.

Presenter topics included:

Stuart Turvey, MBBS, DPhil
Gut Microbiome in Pediatric Asthma and Allergies

Eric Mou, MD
Lymphoma and HLH

Aleks Lenert, MD
Autoinflammatory Disease

Jenny Strouse, MD
Immune Related Adverse Events

Deana McDanel, PharmD
