The ADVENT symposium at the 15th World Congress of Pediatric Dermatology (WCPD) will focus on discussions around disease modification in atopic dermatitis (AD) in three main topic areas: restoring the skin barrier, reducing non-atopic comorbidities, and stopping the atopic march in pediatric patients with AD aged 6 months to 11 years.

In this highlight video from the October 2024 ADVENT symposium at EAPS in Vienna, Austria, Dr Mark Boguniewicz discusses the prevalence of food sensitization and food allergy in pediatric patients with AD, clarifying the difference between the two. Dr Boguniewicz also discusses the prevalence of other atopic comorbidities in children with AD

In this expert interview video focusing on topics from the October 2024 ADVENT symposium at EAPS in Vienna, Austria, Dr Perla Lansang discusses how to identify pediatric patients with AD uncontrolled with topical therapies, considerations for the next step in care for these patients, and the potential benefits of early intervention with systemic treatment

This video from the September 2024 ADVENT symposium at EADV’s Annual Meeting in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, features Dr. Eric Simpson discussing the concept of disease modification and the benefits of early intervention when treating patients with AD. Dr. Simpson also reviews available data investigating the impacts of therapies for AD on the disease itself and on associated comorbidities.

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.

This video of the October 2024 ADVENT symposium at EAPS in Vienna, Austria features Drs Christine Bangert, Mark Boguniewicz, and Perla Lansang as they discuss the inflammatory processes driven by type 2 cytokines that lead to AD and atopic comorbidities, the multidimensional and cumulative disease burden associated with AD and its comorbidities, and the current and emerging treatment options for children with AD uncontrolled with topical therapy

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.

This video from the September 2024 ADVENT symposium at EADV’s Annual Meeting in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, features Dr. Stephan Weidinger discussing how local type 2 inflammation at the skin tissue level contributes to epidermal barrier dysfunction, dysbiosis, and neuroimmune dysfunction, leading to the clinical signs and symptoms of AD. Dr. Weidinger also reviews how systemic inflammation affects organ systems beyond the skin and can manifest as atopic and non-atopic comorbidities.

This video presentation of the September 2024 ADVENT symposium at EADV’s Annual Meeting in Amsterdam, the Netherlands features Dr. Stephan Weidinger, Dr. Eric Simpson, and Dr. Marjolein de Bruin-Weller. The faculty investigate the inflammatory processes driven by type 2 cytokines that lead to the local and systemic clinical effects of AD, the potential benefits of treating patients with AD early in the disease course, and the emerging real-world data on the use of advanced systemic therapies for patients with AD.

Join experts G. Walter Canonica, Vibeke Backer, and Joaquim Mullol for an educational symposium on elevating treatment goals from control to remission in the upper and lower airways.

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.

In this soundbite video from the March 2025 ADVENT symposium in Orlando, Florida, Dr. Eric Simpson highlights 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 explores how persistent type 2 inflammation in AD may drive both atopic and nonatopic comorbidities, emphasizing the importance of early, effective treatment to alter disease progression.
