A lecture Tuesday about genetic and environmental causes of asthma and allergies at the University of Arizona has been postponed.

Fernando Martinez, a noted asthma expert and director of the university’s Arizona Respiratory Center, was to give a public lecture on the subject. Martinez’s research focuses on the natural history of childhood asthma and the genetic, physiological and environmental factors behind it.

The talk, to have taken place at 5:30 p.m. at the University Medical Center DuVal Auditorium, 1501 N. Campbell Ave., has not yet been rescheduled.
