The ACAAI FIT Bowl – now in its 29th consecutive year – is patterned after a popular TV quiz show. This year, 19 teams competed in preliminary rounds and 4 will complete for the coveted FIT Bowl trophy. The teams will test their knowledge, cleverness and ability to listen and quickly respond to questions in this fast-paced event.
The questions have been developed by a variety of sources and encompass a wide range of topics including all aspects of allergy/immunology and the history of our profession.
The evening is designed to be fun, light-hearted and educational. The first FIT Bowl was conceived by the late Dr. John Selner (ACAAI President 1992-93), and introduced at the College’s 50th Anniversary meeting. Dr. Selner turned to Dr. Kevin Murphy to bring his idea to life and Drs. Bryan Martin and Kevin Murphy have co-chaired the FIT Bowl ever since.
The emcee for this year’s program will be Dr. Bryan Martin.
