WG2 Expert Series Webinar

Dr. Karine Raymond’s research focuses on understanding how specialized skin cells communicate to sense and adapt to environmental challenges such as microbes, UV radiation, and mechanical stress. Her laboratory develops advanced human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)-based models to study how mutations in rare diseases such as Xeroderma Pigmentosum and Epidermolysis Bullosa disrupt skin homeostasis. The ultimate goal of her research is to develop new therapies and preventive strategies to improve patients’ quality of life.
