This 2-hour educational program delves into the pivotal role of type 2 inflammation in diverse skin conditions, including atopic dermatitis, prurigo nodularis, bullous pemphigoid, and chronic spontaneous urticaria. It will highlight both shared and distinct disease mechanisms and patient burdens, providing crucial insights for optimizing clinical management strategies. Experts will guide the audience through diverse patient cases to illuminate diagnostic nuances and the pathophysiology of each condition. These cases will also highlight the importance of shared decision-making and the broadening of treatment goals beyond symptom control. Dynamic panel discussion and active audience participation will be facilitated through real-time polling and curated Q&A sessions.

Join Dr. Jason Hawkes in discussing the burden of CSU and how type 2 inflammation contributes to the development of chronic wheals (hives) and angioedema

Welcome to the CSU learning hub focused on key scientific education on chronic spontaneous urticaria, featuring ADVENT resources.
Dr Sarina Elmariah highlights the clinical challenges in diagnosing inflammatory skin diseases, using prurigo nodularis as a case study. Drs Culton, Eichenfield, and Hawkes then join in to discuss additional challenges and complexities when diagnosing other skin diseases.
Please join the ADVENT program at EADV 2026 for educational sessions on AD, PN, and CSU!

Two educational symposia at San Diego, 2024, explore the role of type 2 inflammation and the related manifestations in atopic dermatitis, prurigo nodularis, and chronic spontaneous urticaria.

Dr. Hawkes highlights how Chronic Urticaria is a mast cell centric disease with moderate levels of spontaneous remission in patients.

Join Drs. Michihiro Hide, Marta Ferrrer, and Ana M. Giménez-Arnau as they discuss chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) and highlight the unmet needs, treatment challenges, and emerging therapies.

Watch as Drs. Michihiro Hide, Marta Ferrrer, and Ana M. Giménez-Arnau discuss chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) and highlight the unmet needs, importance of disease control, and emerging therapies.

The March 2025 ADVENT symposium in Orlando, Florida brought together 4 dermatology experts to explore the evolving science of type 2 inflammation. Type 2 inflammation plays a central role in the pathophysiology of multiple dermatological diseases, driving chronic immune dysregulation that affects patients with atopic dermatitis (AD) prurigo nodularis (PN), chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) and bullous pemphigoid (BP). Understanding the mechanisms behind type 2 inflammation is key to advancing care and improving patient quality of life.
Join allergist Dr. Nicole Chase and dermatologist Dr. Jason Hawkes as they dispel common myths in the management of chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU). They offer practical, empathetic strategies to move beyond unnecessary diagnostics and delays, focusing instead on urgent treatment escalation and effective management to reduce the profound burden of uncontrolled CSU on patients.
