I always knew I wanted to be a doctor. My dad's a doctor, and there was never any doubt about that. I was lucky to have a lot of great mentors along the way. My mentor in college, Jerry Groupman, who's up at Harvard, was very instrumental in my choices. I worked in his lab for four years. applied to medical school, thought I wanted to be a hematologist oncologist like him, explored that field.

And later into my residency, I explored allergy immunology, which has fascinating medicine and amazing potential to make people feel better.

The immune system in particular is fascinating because we know so little about it. It's so important, right? We need our immune system to protect us from disease and to fight things off. When it goes haywire, we can end up with autoimmune disease, which is where our own antibodies attack us.

Or we can end up with allergic disease, which is when different types of antibodies, IgE antibodies, react against substances that are harmless. But if we make antibodies against them, we can run into big trouble. Define IgE for me. IgE is immunoglobulin E. It's an immunoglobulin that's made by B cells.

It probably had more of a function evolutionarily in terms of fighting off parasitic disease, etc., It certainly was not evolutionarily made to react to peanuts and pollens, but we don't know why in some people those types of antibodies are made that are specific against harmless substances.
