The funding is to accelerate national allergy research and public health programs that support Australians living with allergic disease, with the NAC and NACE established in August 2022 with an initial $26.9 million in federal funding.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis funding will directly support our work in delivering accessible, nationally standardised and evidence-based public health initiatives, education, training and everyday support for people living with allergic disease and those who care for them.\u201d<\/p>\n

Professor Kirsten Perrett, Director of the NACE, said: \u201cOur focus\u202fis to\u202faddress\u202fcomplex clinical challenges through embedded allergy research, rigorous evaluation and the rapid translation of emerging evidence into clinical care. We are ensuring Australia\u00a0remains\u00a0at the forefront of allergy research.\u201d<\/p>\n
