Abstract
In Europe, 40 % of the population are already affected by allergic symptoms. Airborne pollen and fungal spores are among the most common allergy triggers. Due to climate change, pollen and spores increase not only in quantity but also change in quality with regard to their allergenicity. In addition, new pollen types will occur due to changes in ecosystems and vegetation zones. In allergy research, inter- and transdisciplinary cooperation between economy, environmental science and medicine are essential.
