Joan M. Cook-Mills studies how allergic diseases like food allergy and asthma develop early in life, including during pregnancy and infancy. Much of the work uses mouse models to trace the immune and molecular mechanisms behind these conditions, such as how a mother's diet (for example vitamin E/tocopherol) or lipids and skin barrier defects influence a child's risk of developing allergies. Additional research examines eosinophils (a type of white blood cell), oxidative stress, and potential therapies.
