Brian S. Kim MD, MTR, presented virtually as a keynote speaker, “Neuroimmune Regulation of Itch” to the Anesthesiology Branch of the Chinese Geriatric Society 2022 Annual Meeting in August, 2022. How does the healthy skin barrier become inflamed? How does inflammation within the skin lead to neurophysiologic pathology? Dr. Kim views the skin as a model barrier paradigm in which to understand other organs and various surfaces and to understand neurophysiology and sensation more broadly. Dr. Kim discussed atopic dermatitis as a model disease and presented a deep dive into his research in itch biology, leading to successful new therapeutics.
