40% of T cells are resident memory T cells in active #vitiligo. These are responsible for relapse. IL15receptor Beta antibody depletes resident memory Tcells &induces repigmentation. Thanks @HarrisVitiligo for the insights & for the honor of contributing to the session #AAD2019

I just read a recent JAAD CME about racial and ethnic disparities in dermatology. "Racism", "discrimination", or "social determinants of health" are NOT mentioned even ONCE and there are nearly 6,000 words in the review. This is concerning. THREAD 🧵

In this thread I explain why that study linking uterine cancer and hair straighteners has too many weaknesses to explain whether this is an issue for Black women. The media is stoking fear that is wildly disproportionate to the study findings. Have a look...🧵👇🏿

Awesome @Sensible__Med analysis but one major thing missing in your post @adamcifu involves RACE. It’s the reason why this article made so much news, particularly for Black women reporters like @ayesharascoe. However, I think the narrative is getting WAY ahead of the data...🧵

@DrPieterPeach Can we learn anything from other countries around the world that also worked through the pandemic without prolonged restrictions like that seen in Victoria?

7. Creativity is an under appreciated skill but an essential one if we are going to find new solutions to our old problems. Creativity = make connections between seemingly unrelated things (divergent thinking). Using analogies from other sectors can help inspire.

Great news! Our vitiligo session at the #AAD2022 was one of the top attended sessions at the meeting. As a reward, I have to find a time that all of the session faculty can get together again to do a virtual meeting as a "reprise". . .

@DrEricLevi Akin to “pigment” in my world. Pigment/pigmentation is not a diagnosis. It’s merely a descriptive term (when used correctly…ie hyperpigmentation, hypopigmentation)

Vertigo is not a diagnosis. Vertigo is a symptom, much like saying “headache”. Tinnitus, too, is a symptom, not a diagnosis.

India has 1.3 billion people. 4 times that of the US. What’s going on is just amazing and needs in depth immunologic studies. These are raw numbers!
