COVID Acral Ischemia/Perniosis in Children

Almost 1 in 4 children is affected by skin disease.

For many of them—and their families—the burden is extreme, treatment options are limited, and the pace of research is too slow.

The Pediatric Dermatology Research Alliance (PeDRA) exists to:

PeDRA inspires new ideas

Focused Study Groups

Most of PeDRA’s research takes place within one of eight collaborative Focused Study Groups – Acne & Hidradenitis Suppurativa, Atopic Dermatitis & Psoriasis, Birthmarks, Connective Tissue & Autoinflammatory Disorders, Genetic Skin Disorders, Hair Disorders, Neonatal Skin Care, and Skin Tumors and Reactions to Cancer Therapies (STARC). Each study group consists of dozens of clinician scientists, working under the guidance of one or more leaders to identify novel research ideas, advance our understanding of childhood skin diseases, and identify the best ways to improve the lives of patients and their families. PeDRA is able to leverage the strength of these working groups to identify and pursue cross-cutting studies that address high priority research questions spanning many different pediatric skin diseases.
