OVERVIEW

Every three years, the SPIN Congress gathers some 1,500 delegates from around 90 countries. It is the major international meeting focused on the patient management and therapeutic strategies with a special emphasis on the daily medical practice. Experts throughout the entire world report on their experiences and deliver insight into the latest results and clinical studies.

SPIN 2022 will offer a holistic view of the inflammatory skin diseases, particularly focused on psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, vitiligo, alopecia, and hidradenitis suppurativa; including teaching, sharing, and understanding of the different scenarios around the world, keeping in mind the perspective of the patients. The congress will be in a hybrid format, thus enabling participants to attend physically or online. Besides, it will offer a dynamic, interdisciplinary and interactive programme.

The scope of SPIN and its triennial congress pursues its broadening with the objective to transfer the know-how acquired on psoriasis (highest standard in issues such as quality of life, high burden and co-morbidities) to other chronic inflammatory skin diseases, in particular atopic dermatitis, vitiligo, alopecia, and hidradenitis suppurativa.

The global theme for the SPIN 2022 congress will focus on ‘Building bridges between Chronic Inflammatory Skin Diseases’. We will expand the classical congress programme (pathogenesis, diagnosis/comorbidities, treatment, specific subgroups) to sessions, which will emphasize on ‘lifestyle & environment’, ‘health economic aspects of treatments’, ‘outcomes and real-life data (registries)’, ‘examples of a valuable learning cycle (difficult cases from which we learnt to do better in the future) ‘, ‘patient information/shared decision making’, future directions/unmet needs”. The programme will address bridging topics sessions as well as sessions dedicated on given chronic inflammatory skin diseases.
