Organization of Care in Atopic Dermatitis
AD PATIENT'S JOURNEY

Welcome to our Society

The International Society of Atopic Dermatitis (ISAD) was founded on 7 June 2012, Verona, on the occasion of the Spring Symposium of the European Academy of Dermato-Venereology.

In 1979, in Oslo, Norway, Professor Georg Rajka launched a series of international meetings on atopic dermatitis which took place approximately every two to three years. These meetings brought together clinicians and scientists interested in atopic dermatitis in an interdisciplinary atmosphere and provided state-of-the-art updates on clinical and experimental research on this disease. Based on these premises, the Society was created to (excerpt of bylaws) promote excellence in clinical care, research, education and training in the field of atopic dermatitis and related diseases, to act as a patient advocate and educator in cooperation with lay groups, to organize the International meeting every 2 to 3 years, and to prepare, edit, publish and distribute articles, books, journals or other literary or electronic material suitable to the objects of the Society.
