Listen to the latest updates in type 2 inflammatory science and associated skin diseases, brought to you by leading dermatology experts in the field. ADVENT On Air podcasts feature scientific conversations that explore new research into the pathophysiology, clinical features, and disease burden for a range of dermatological diseases linked to type 2 inflammation, including atopic dermatitis (AD) and prurigo nodularis (PN). Hear new insights revealed through expert-led conversations below or in your preferred podcast app.


In this highlight video from the September 2024 ADVENT symposium at EADV’s Annual Meeting in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, Dr. Stephan Weidinger discusses how type 2 inflammation contributes to epidermal barrier dysfunction, perivascular infiltration and plasma protein leakage, and chronic itch in AD.

Professor Klaus Rabe delves into the intricate inflammatory pathways and cellular mechanisms that drive the development and progression of COPD.

Dr. Stephanie Christenson examines the genetic and environmental factors influencing IL-33 expression and activity in COPD, highlighting the complex interplay between genetics, smoking, and disease pathogenesis.

Professors Klaus Rabe, Paola Rogliani, and Dr. Stephanie Christenson explore the complexity of inflammatory pathways and phenotypes in COPD. They provide insights into the genetic association of IL-33 with COPD, discuss preclinical findings, and review ongoing clinical research targeting IL-33 in COPD.

Professor Klaus Rabe presents the latest clinical data on current and emerging biologic therapies targeting IL-33 in COPD.
Use this educational tool to explore the daily burden of loss of smell for patients with CRSwNP.

Dr. Chovatiya explains that PN is primarily a chronic itch disease with a complex pathophysiology involving neuronal changes, type 2 inflammation, and fibrotic skin processes, affecting patients' overall well-being.
An infographic exploring the pathophysiology of prurigo nodularis and the role of type 2 inflammation.
Professor Matthias Augustin details the various clinical manifestations of prurigo nodularis, illustrating how different lesion types can present concurrently in patients.

Dr. Oscar Palomares explains that IL-4 and IL-13 are crucial cytokines in type 2 inflammation, playing both unique and overlapping roles, including T cell expansion and contributing to clinical symptoms in chronic diseases.
Professor Sarina Elmariah highlights the multifaceted role of IL-4 and IL-13 in driving dermal fibrosis in prurigo nodularis, which leads to persistent scarring and dyspigmentation that significantly contribute to patients' embarrassment, anxiety, depression, and self-esteem.
