E146: Immunology of the skin: the next frontier in personalised dermatology

In this episode of the EADV Podcast, host Prof. Carle Paul welcomes Prof. Michel Gilliet, Professor and Chairman of Dermatology at the University of Lausanne and Chair of the EADV Scientific Programming Committee. Together, they explore groundbreaking advancements in skin immunology, with a particular focus on personalised medicine for immune-mediated skin diseases.
Prof. Gilliet discusses his pioneering work in pathway profiling, a method designed to identify dominant inflammatory pathways in skin specimens. This personalised approach allows for targeted diagnosis and treatments, improving patient outcomes. They also delve into the practical applications of this technology, its potential to redefine diagnostic precision, and its promise for broader implementation across Europe.
Ideal for dermatologists, researchers, and clinicians seeking to stay at the forefront of dermatological innovation, this #EADVPodcast episode uncovers how molecular profiling is paving the way for personalised medicine in dermatology.

E144: Plastics in dermatology: environmental impact, patient safety, and the path to sustainable practice

In this insightful episode of the EADV Podcast, Prof. David de Berker is joined by Dr. Eugene Tan, an academic dermatologist and Mohs micrographic surgeon based in New Zealand, to discuss the environmental and clinical impact of plastics in dermatology.
Their discussion, inspired by Dr. Tan’s open-access article “Plastics in Dermatology: A Review and Solutions”, recently published in the JEADV, explores the science behind microplastics and nanoplastics, the life cycle of plastic products in medicine, and practical ways dermatologists and patients can reduce their plastic footprint. Dr. Tan explains how limited but consistent scientific findings raise significant concerns about plastics in skincare, and why sustainability in dermatology requires both individual and systemic action. From the power of consumer choice to international regulation and biodegradable alternatives, this episode offers a broad yet actionable perspective on an urgent issue.
Tune in to learn what steps you and your patients can take today to create a more sustainable dermatology practice.

E142: New Guidelines: Advancing Care in Hidradenitis Suppurativa

In this episode of the EADV Podcast, host Dr. Sarah Walsh sits down with Prof. Thrasivoulos Tzellos during the 2025 EADV Spring Symposium in Prague to discuss the latest European guidelines for the treatment of hidradenitis suppurativa (HS).
Together, they explore the evolution of HS care, the role of general practitioners in early detection, the value of clinical tools and patient-reported outcomes, and the potential of emerging therapies. Prof. Tzellos also shares his thoughts on antimicrobial resistance, phenotype-based treatment, and the importance of multidisciplinary care. The conversation is grounded in both evidence-based recommendations and real-world clinical experience, with reflections on how advocacy and access to care remain vital components of improving outcomes for HS patients across Europe.
Tune in to discover practical insights and the latest developments that are shaping the future of HS treatment.
