The AAAAI is dedicated to the advancement of the knowledge and practice of allergy, asthma, and immunology for optimal patient care. The American Academy of Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology (AAAAI) dates back to the 1920s through the founding of two professional organizations: The Society for the Study of Asthma and Allied Conditions and the American Association for the Study of Allergy. In 1943, the two organizations united to create the American Academy of Allergy (AAA). From 1982 to about 1991 it was called the American Academy of Allergy and Immunology (AAAI). Since then it has been called the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology (AAAAI). The Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology (JACI), published monthly, is the official scientific journal of the AAAAI. It is the most-cited journal in the field of allergy and clinical immunology. In January, 2013, the AAAAI launched The Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology: In Practice, a publication aimed at the practicing clinician treating allergies, asthma and immunologic disorders. The organization also publishes educational materials for patients and consumers. The National Allergy Bureau (NAB) is an AAAAI-certified pollen and outdoor mold spore counting network.
