Dr. Cosby Stone, Jr. MD, MPH is a Physician-Scientist Assistant Professor in Allergy/Immunology at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. He grew up in rural Crossville, Tennessee and went to college at Vanderbilt University (BS, mathematics), completed medical school and an MPH (epidemiology) at the University of Alabama in Birmingham, and residency/chief residency at Yale-New Haven Hospital in the combined internal medicine and pediatrics residency program. He then returned to Vanderbilt for allergy/immunology training and stayed on as faculty, where he has gained expertise in the risk-stratification, testing and management of immediate hypersensitivity reactions to drugs and vaccines under the mentorship of Dr. Elizabeth Phillips. His research methods span the range from clinical, translational and epidemiology research to implementation science, with a focus on medication and vaccine anaphylaxis. His research topics focus on optimal approaches to immediate hypersensitivity reactions to antibiotics, chemotherapy, vaccines, and to inactive excipients such as alpha-gal and polyethylene glycol. In addition, he focuses on the underlying mechanisms of true allergy cases. He has previously been funded by AHRQ and the AAAAI Foundation to study the epidemiology and risk stratification of penicillin and cephalosporin allergies. He is currently funded by an NIAID CoFAR to study alpha-gal allergies and by a pilot grant to study chemotherapy anaphylaxis, funded by the Vanderbilt Ingram Cancer Center and Chic Awearness. Outside of work, Dr. Stone enjoys spending time with his family, gardening, and writes poetry and fiction.
