Welcome to the new on-line home for the Southeastern Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology Society. Here you will find many new on-line resources such as our annual conference information, officer contact info, and a members only area. Our members area will have some great features including on-line dues payment and Continuing Education credits. Thanks for visiting!

“In my 30 years of practice, like most of you, I went to most of the national meetings and many regional meetings, and my favorite of all the meetings was the SEAAI. The locations were almost always great, programs were outstanding and usually included the presidents of the JCAAI, AAAAI, and ACAAI and presentations from fellows in training from the programs in the Southeast. A special quality of the meetings was the ability to meet and talk with leaders in our specialty from around the country in small scientific and social settings. You can visit with the leaders in our specialty and get to know them, personally, in a setting that is usually spectacular. Anyone who hasn't attended the SEAAI meeting should definitely give it a try and it might just turn out to be your favorite meeting also.”
