Defining Keratin Protein Function in Skin Epithelia: Epidermolysis Bullosa Simplex and Its Aftermath
Join presenter Dr. Robert Dellavalle as he speaks with Dr. Pierre Coulombe, Chair of the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at Johns Hopkins University, about the keratin mutations that underlie Epidermolysis Bullosa Simplex and how understanding the role of keratin proteins in the skin has broadly benefited basic science research.

Milestones in Cutaneous Biology: Heritable disorders of skin structure lead to some of the most striking phenotypes. While many of these conditions are rare, a molecular understanding of these structural diseases remains one of the true triumphs of modern dermatologic science. Read more about the genetics of structural skin disorders featured in Milestones in Cutaneous Biology.
Intersociety Collegiality Awards: Readers of the JID are reminded of a series of awards available for SID, ESDR and JSID members to encourage participation of members of one society at one of the other society meetings. This initiative is supported by the Boards of all 3 societies. The objective is to promote the academic and international profile of "young investigators" involved in skin research. To date, more than 20 awards have been made and the personal and career benefits are both rewarding and satisfying. For further details, please refer to information posted on SID, ESDR and JSID webpages.
