About Us
The Junior Members (JMs) represent the largest EAACI Section consisting of more than 4000 clinicians and scientists under the age of 36 years.

Furthermore, JMs can apply for:
- Positions within the JM Assembly (JMA) Board
- Research and Clinical Fellowships

The JMA Board is the representative body of EAACI JMs; it is composed of a Secretary, one representative from each of the 5 EAACI Sections, and of the 6 EAACI Interest Groups, and myself as the Chair. The Past JM Chair has an advisory role in the JMA Board. Please read more on the JM WG Procedure here.
All of us in the JMA Board 2017-2019 are very enthusiastic and determined to devote our time and efforts to ensure that Juniors are always in the center of all EAACI activities. Follow our updates on these JM pages at eaaci.org as well as on Facebook, and Twitter and stay tuned!
