Join experts Dédée Murrell, Donna Aline Culton, Joost Meijer and Enno Schmidt for an educational presentation on the clinical presentation, disease burden, diagnosis, and underlying pathophysiology of bullous pemphigoid (BP). Dive deeper into unmet needs and treatment challenges faced by these patients and how targeted therapies may address them.

Professors Brian Lipworth, Zuzana Diamant, and Philippe Gevaert delve into the complexities of managing patients with both severe and/or uncontrolled CRSwNP and co-existing asthma through an evaluation of the diagnostic challenges, personalized treatment strategies, and the latest advancements in understanding the interconnected pathophysiology of these type 2 airway diseases.

This page presents educational material, infographics, and video highlights from our recent ADVENT symposia, including the 2025 World Congress of Pediatric Dermatology (WCPD) in Buenos Aires, Argentina, exploring the pathophysiology of type 2 inflammation and atopic dermatitis, the burden of disease leading to cumulative life course impairment (CLCI), and the risk of the atopic march in pediatric patients with atopic dermatitis.

Dive into the complex pathophysiology of chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU), where mast cell degranulation drives the hallmark signs and symptoms. This interactive infographic elucidates how key type 2 cytokines, specifically IL-4 and IL-13, contribute to mast cell activation, immune cell trafficking into the skin, and neuronal sensitization in CSU, which ultimately leads to the release of mediators like histamine that cause wheals, angioedema, and itch.

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.

Learn how loss of smell in CRSwNP is a key symptom for both patients and providers.

Learn about the significant burden that patients with COPD experience and the role of inflammatory mechanisms in this chronic, often progressive disease. 

Highlights from the ADVENT educational symposium at EADV 2024 discussing the current understanding of the science and treatment landscape in bullous pemphigoid (BP).

Join the effort to improve CRSwNP care. World Anosmia Day serves as an opportunity to raise awareness about the loss of the sense of smell. Access some of countless educational resources with ADVENT below.
