Munich, Germany

Kilian Eyerich holds the chair for dermatology and venereology at the Karolinska Institutet in Stockholm and is Heisenberg professor for dermato-immunology at the Technical University Munich. His scientific interest is to understand the interaction of immune cells and epithelial cells in inflammatory skin diseases, with the aim to re-classify inflammatory skin diseases into meaningful molecular endotypes.
He published more than 120 articles in journals such as the New England Journal of Medicine, Science Translational Medicine, or Nature Immunology and received numerous grants and awards.

Lecture summary

PL-A03 – Inflammatory skin diseases: in between tradition and molecular deciphering

Hundreds of inflammatory skin diseases (ncISD) were described over the last two centuries. While more and more specific biologics become available, our classification reaches its limits. The best we can do nowadays is to group ncISD according to their immune response pattern, thus giving a rational for a specific symptomatic treatment.

To achieve a substantial breakthrough, disease heterogeneity has to be acknowledged when researching ncISD. This talk summarises current translational research approaches to do so, gives an overview on biomarkers proposed to define clinically meaningful endotypes of ncISD, and finally gives an outlook how the future of diagnosing and treating ncISD might look like.
