North America has long been a vibrant hub for groundbreaking research in allergy and immunology driven by its pioneering multiple discoveries in the field, a strong tradition of scientific collaboration, and its rich and diverse patient populations with distinctive environmental exposures.

We are delighted to present this special issue of Pediatric Allergy and Immunology, which provides an inspiring glimpse into the future of pediatric allergy research in North America. The editors of PAI warmly invite researchers from across the region to contribute their work to the journal. We welcome submissions of original research, reviews, and case studies that advance our understanding of pediatric allergies and immunology within the North American context.

Submissions can be made via the Research Exchange Platform and will undergo a thorough peer-review process.

With this Virtual Issue, we feature a set of trailblazing studies which will debut in 2025. This collection highlights innovative research that is set to transform the field and address critical challenges in pediatric allergy and immunology.

We hope that this issue inspires your own work while fostering the understanding of this ever-evolving field.
