A significant step forward in advancing our understanding of atopic dermatitis
Chief Scientific Officer at the LEO Foundation Anne-Marie Engel sees GADA making a significant global difference:
“Atopic dermatitis is a burden to individuals, families, and societies on a worldwide scale, and we need global initiatives like GADA to address the challenges associated with the disease. GADA collects validated data that put together provide a 360-degree view of the disease. This is essential to improve treatments and methods of disease prevention, and important whether you are a researcher, clinician, patient, or policymaker,” she says and continues:
“At the LEO Foundation, we are excited to support this collaboration of international experts paving the way for a better understanding of atopic dermatitis. It is our ambition to support initiatives that drive a holistic and forward-thinking understanding of skin diseases, ultimately improving the lives of people affected, and we believe that GADA fits this very well.”
