He shares how advances in immunology and clinical trials are transforming treatment for psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, hidradenitis suppurativa, urticaria, vitiligo, alopecia areata, and other inflammatory skin diseases. The conversation also explores personalized treatment, whole-person health, access to care through clinical research, and the growing opportunities for pediatric dermatologists to participate in research outside traditional academic settings.
