Unpacking the Atopic March is your go-to podcast for exploring how allergies unfold across childhood. From babyhood eczema and food allergies to school-age asthma and hay fever, we break down the science behind why allergic conditions seem to follow one another — a phenomenon known as the atopic march.
Join us as we unpack the latest research, hear from leading allergy experts, and share real-life stories from families navigating these conditions. We’ll explore key questions like:
- Why do some children develop multiple allergies?
- Can we prevent the march from happening?
- What role do genetics, environment, and the immune system play?
- What practical steps can families and clinicians take?
Whether you’re a parent, patient, or healthcare professional, this podcast offers evidence-based insights, hopeful perspectives, and practical tips to help you better understand and manage the allergy journey.
