In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Brian Kim, a true trailblazer at the cutting edge of science and medicine:

• Co-Founder at Alys Pharmaceuticals, a biopharmaceutical company with an innovation focus on immuno-dermatology, redefining how we understand chronic itch and skin inflammation. Brian is also the Director of the Mark Lebwohl Center for Neuroinflammation and Sensation and the Allen Discovery Center for Neuroimmune Interactions.
• Sol and Clara Kest Professor and Vice Chair of Research in Dermatology at Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai.
• Nearly two decades of experience spanning dermatology, immunology, allergy and neuroscience.
• Internationally recognised for unlocking the mysteries of itch biology, opening doors to entirely new therapeutic approaches.
• Previously the Co-Founder of Nuogen Pharma and now on the scientific advisory board for Attovia Therapeutics and Triveni Bio. Brian is also an advisor for Septerna - helping to translate scientific insights into next-generation therapies.
• Recent keynote speaker at the prestigious Friedman Brain Institute’s Neuroscience Retreat, as well as plenary talks across both allergy and dermatology like the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology (AAAAI) Presidential Plenary Session (2/23/2024) and the Marion B. Sulzberger, MD Memorial Award and Lectureship at the American Academy of Dermatology March of 2024 - proving how his work resonates across disciplines.

In this episode, we discuss everything from Innovation & AI in dermatology to Leadership in Academia vs Industry. Brian also reveals the reason Dermatology is securing so much funding in 2025. This conversation applies broadly to all types of connections in the Life Sciences Industry, and aims to educate and inspire those who want to excel in leadership.
