Advancing Pediatric Allergy Research with Dr. Tracy Augustine
Introduction:
The 4th World
Child & Adolescent Medicine and Health Conference (CME/CPD accredited),
scheduled from October 21–23, 2025 at Novotel Al Barsha, Dubai, brings together
leading experts to share their latest findings in child health. Among the
distinguished speakers, Dr. Tracy Augustine, a Post-Doctoral Research Fellow at
Sidra Medicine, Qatar, will present her pioneering work on pediatric cow milk
allergy.
Her
presentation, “Distinct Allergen-Specific CD4+ T Cell Immune Responses and Gut
Microbial Association Prevail in Pediatric Cow Milk Allergy Endotypes,”
explores how immune responses and the gut microbiome interact to shape
different types of milk allergy in children—a pressing issue in pediatric
healthcare today.

Benefits of
Attending
Attendees of
Dr. Augustine’s session will gain:
- A deeper understanding of cow milk allergy
mechanisms in children.
- Insights into distinct CD4+ T cell responses and
how they relate to allergy endotypes.
- Knowledge of gut microbial associations and their
influence on immune responses.
- Exposure to advanced immunological tools and
techniques: flow cytometry, rare antigen-specific T cell detection,
multiplexed cytokine profiling, 16s rRNA sequencing.
- The ability to apply this knowledge in clinical
settings to improve diagnosis, management, and therapy for pediatric food
allergy.
Research
Interests
Dr. Augustine
brings over 14 years of experience in:
- Cellular & molecular biology with a strong
focus on immunology.
- CD4+ T cell simulation, phenotyping, and functional
analyses.
- Detection of rare antigen-specific T cells and
cytokine profiling.
- Expertise in immunoassays: flow cytometry,
multiplex cytokine assays, etc.
- Microbiome studies and sequencing (16s rRNA),
particularly in relation to pediatric allergy.
Currently,
she is leading an institutional grant-funded project on non-IgE mediated cow
milk allergy, an area in pediatric allergy that is understudied and in need of
better diagnostic and therapeutic strategies.
Awards,
Recognition & Achievements
