The LeBien Visiting Professor Program promotes improved knowledge about the diagnosis and treatment of primary immunodeficiency diseases. Teaching hospitals throughout the United States may submit a request for a leading clinical immunologist to lead Grand Rounds or present at other educational activities, such as bedside rounds or house staff and/or medical residents conferences.
