Learn about type 2 inflammation as a driver of neurosensitization and chronic itch in atopic dermatitis with this educational tool.
Join leading dermatologists for educational symposia on atopic dermatitis, bullous pemphigoid, and chronic spontaneous urticaria at the EADV congress in Paris, France.

An interactive tool used to explore the global burden of atopic dermatitis in children and adolescents.

Professor Lisa Beck explores the chronic and persistent burden of atopic dermatitis (AD) as well as the concept of early intervention in patients with AD.
Prof Jean-David Bouaziz describes the multifaceted burden of atopic dermatitis, beyond what can be seen on the skin, at EADV 2025.
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.

Watch this short video to learn how type 2 inflammation, skin barrier dysfunction, and neurosensitization contribute to chronic itch and the itch-scratch cycle in atopic dermatitis
The underlying pathophysiology of atopic dermatitis (AD) is driven by dysregulation of type 2 immunity that contributes to skin barrier dysfunction. AD typically develops very early in life and children with AD often develop other atopic conditions such as food allergy, asthma, and allergic rhinitis in a progression called the atopic march. Early treatment may help reduce the atopic march and other comorbidities to lessen the lifetime burden created by these diseases. There may even be a window of opportunity for disease modification.

Join Christine Bangert, Mark Boguniewicz and Perla Lansang for an educational symposium on atopic dermatitis (AD) in children, exploring the diagnosis and pathophysiology of AD in children, the life-long effects of uncontrolled disease beyond the skin, and current and emerging therapies.
How type 2 inflammation drives atopic dermatitis and underlies other atopic diseases across multiple disease trajectories including the atopic march.

In this soundbite video from the April 2025 ADVENT Forum in Lisbon, Portugal, Dr. Brian Kim explains how underlying type 2 inflammation sustains the chronic itch-scratch cycle in atopic dermatitis, highlighting the interplay of barrier dysfunction, cytokine signaling, and neuronal activation.
