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.
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.

In this video clip from the EAACI 2024 symposium, Dr. Mullol discusses the challenge of defining active nasal disease using an endoscope.

Dr. Sonja Ständer and Dr. Shawn Kwatra discuss the unique features of prurigo nodularis (PN) as well as the characteristics that are shared with atopic dermatitis, and aim to raise awareness of PN among both physicians and patients.

In this video from the April 2025 WCPD symposium, Dr Paula Luna discusses the multidimensional disease burden in pediatric patients with AD and the data regarding how early intervention may lead to long-term disease control and a reduced risk of developing non-atopic comorbidities.

Dr. Chovatiya discusses PN, emphasizing that while itch is a major symptom, the disease's burden is multi-dimensional, affecting appearance, sleep, social life, and mental health, requiring comprehensive therapeutic solutions.

Join Dr Kwatra as he dives deeper into the mechanism of lesion formation in Prurigo Nodularis and the impact the development of these skin lesions have on patient life.

In this video from the March 2025 ADVENT symposium in Orlando, Florida, Dr. Eric Simpson discusses the systemic nature of atopic dermatitis (AD) and how the disease burden extends beyond the skin. Through the lens of cumulative life course impairment, Dr. Simpson goes on to explore how persistent type 2 inflammation in AD may drive both atopic and nonatopic comorbidities, emphasizing the potential importance of early and effective therapeutic intervention to alter disease progression

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.
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.


Dr. Ramien discusses evidence showing that advanced therapies can modify the mechanisms of atopic dermatitis, improving skin barrier function, normalizing the skin microbiome, and reducing chronic itch.

In this video from the March 2025 ADVENT symposium in Orlando, Florida, Dr. Eric Simpson discusses how protective type 2 immunity can become dysregulated, leading to harmful type 2 inflammation. The associated inflammatory process can contribute to the pathophysiology of several dermatological diseases, including AD, PN, CSU, and BP.
