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 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.

Dr. Ramien explores how advanced systemic therapies may modify atopic dermatitis pathomechanisms including skin barrier dysfunction, and neuroimmune dysregulation

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 Donna Culton walks through the pathophysiology of type 2 inflammation in inflammatory skin diseases, using bullous pemphigoid as an example. Drs Eichenfield, Elmariah, and Hawkes join to discuss the role of type 2 inflammation across atopic dermatitis, prurigo nodularis, and chronic spontaneous urticaria, respectively.

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.

This full video presentation of the April 2025 WCPD symposium features Dr Amy Paller, Dr Paula Luna, and Dr Eulàlia Baselga. The faculty present the latest data on the possibility of achieving disease modification in infants and children with atopic dermatitis.

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.
