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.

In this soundbite video from the April 2025 ADVENT Forum in Lisbon, Portugal, Prof. Oscar Palomares highlights how patients with type 2 inflammatory diseases often experience multimorbidities, with overlapping symptoms that amplify their overall disease burden and impact quality of life.

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

In this soundbite video from the April 2025 ADVENT Forum in Lisbon, Portugal, Prof. Oscar Palomares reviews the cellular and molecular pathways underlying atopic dermatitis and considers which biomarkers may one day serve as robust measures of disease modification, despite no validated options currently being available.

Dr. Simpson discusses impact of advanced systemic therapies in AD, and the link between inhibition of type 2 inflammation and reduced IgE levels.

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. 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.

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.

In this soundbite video from the April 2025 ADVENT Forum in Lisbon, Portugal, Dr. Eric Simpson explains how both clinical and subclinical disease control are critical for achieving true disease modification in atopic dermatitis, emphasizing the role of biomarkers in predicting long-term outcomes and guiding treatment decisions.

In this soundbite video from the April 2025 ADVENT Forum in Lisbon, Portugal, Prof Oscar Palomares discusses how type 2 inflammation plays a critical role in a broad range of diseases across different organ systems.

In this soundbite video from the April 2025 ADVENT Forum in Lisbon, Portugal, Dr. Brian Kim describes the dynamic neuroimmune interactions in chronic pruritic skin diseases, emphasizing how type 2 cytokines and sensory nerves actively influence both itch perception and tissue inflammation.
