note = "Funding Information: In 2004, Bob moved to the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine and became the Chief of the division of Allergy and Immunology and a Roy & Elaine Patterson Professor of Medicine. Although there was only a certified Clinical Laboratory Improvement Act (CLIA) laboratory in this division before his arrival, Bob successfully recruited multiple faculty members and developed several research laboratories in this division. Bob, together with Dr. Robert Kern, a surgeon and Chairman of the Department of Otolaryngology, developed the Sinus and Allergy Center at Northwestern to focus on translational research in chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). At the time, basic research in CRS was far behind compared with other airway inflammatory diseases including asthma and allergic rhinitis especially in the United States. Bob contributed to the CRS field for 16 years and has published over 100 manuscripts on CRS. He also currently serves as the program director for the Chronic Rhinosinusitis Integrative Studies Program funded by the NIH/NIAID. Bob is now one of the key world leaders in this field. 10 ",
