Brain-skin axis: Itch and beyond
 
31
Why has itch been neglected by dermatologists for so many years, and why is it growing in interest lately?
132
You presented the basis of chronic itch. Are there new targets and treatments that can focus on this itch-scratch cycle?
224
Do you think targeting the Th2 cytokines is the answer for all types of itch?
290
You showed new treatments targeting central mechanisms - ultimately, will chronic itch be treated via peripheral or central mechanisms?
 
 
Topical gene therapy for RDEB
 
38
Novel topical gene therapy - what is it?
65
How is it applied and how does it work?
98
Is it applied once, or several times - is once enough to close the wound?
134
Can the patient apply it themselves at home?
186
What are the advantages of the HSV vector?
272
What other indications could be treated with this approach?
 
 
New insights and therapeutic approaches in Lupus Erythematosus
 
40
What are the novelties in the pathogenesis of cutaneous lupus
122
How do you quantify CLE clinically?
163
What is the underlying mechanism of refractory lupus?
223
What can you tell us about the treatment algorithm in these patients?
286
What new treatment options are there now, and in development?
 
 
Immunotherapy of melanoma: Mission accomplished?
 
46
What are the recent therapeutic accomplishments in the field of melanoma?
127
What are the remaining challenges?
185
Your recent Nature paper highlighted the role of CD4 T cells in anti-tumor immune responses. How can future therapies harness this mechanism?
446
You talked about the moonshot project, aiming at curing melanoma. Do you believe we will be able to do so in the coming years? In 10 years what will the prevention/detection/treatment strategy look like?
 
 
Diagnostic and therapeutic pitfalls in skin of colour
 
29
Can you tell us whether there are structural differences in skin of colour?
78
Are these differences reflected in the presentation of skin diseases?
117
For common skin diseases, are there differences or challenges?
170
Concerning procedures, where do we have to be careful?
244
Skin of colour has been absent in the literature. Where can we get this information, and how can we educate ourselves and the next generation of dermatologists?
