About Johns Hopkins Asthma and Allergy Center

The Johns Hopkins University is located in Baltimore, Maryland. The Johns Hopkins Asthma and Allergy Center is located at the Bayview Campus and combines clinics and research laboratories in a single building occupying 130,000 square feet.

The Divisions of Allergy and Clinical Immunology and Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine are the main occupants. Over the years, clinically based studies conducted at Johns Hopkins have led to new and improved treatments for a number of respiratory, allergic and immune diseases.

Especially Needed

Individuals with active AD or who have outgrown AD and also have a history of widespread herpes virus skin infection (also called eczema herpeticum), molluscum contagiosum (pearly wart-like skin lesions), or eczema vaccinatum (adverse reaction to smallpox vaccination).

Even though we are enrolling people regardless of race and ethnicity, we have a special need to enroll African Americans in these studies because African Americans may be at a greater risk.  This risk may be related to a different genetic background.
