GALDERMA
Reinforcing its commitment to advancing dermatology for every skin story, Galderma announced today the formation of a global Sensitive Skincare Faculty, which will focus its efforts on helping people with sensitive skin live better lives through focusing on three key pillars of research, innovation and engagement that play a key role in improving the broad understanding and management of sensitive skin. Comprised of 13 experts from across the world, the group will have representation from diverse geographies including China, Brazil, the Philippines, Germany, France, Australia, Italy and the United States (U.S.).
“We want people to feel in control of their skin, and this is especially important for those who have skin conditions that are often misunderstood – like sensitive skin.

Sensitive skin is a complex and often interconnected condition, requiring personalized care and products specifically designed for it. More than seventy percent of people worldwide diagnose themselves as having sensitive skin, which can negatively impact quality of life and leave them feeling frustrated and looking for better solutions.i There is a need for science-backed guidance and advice on how to identify and care for sensitive skin of all kinds, to help improve the overall quality of sensitive skin.
The Sensitive Skincare Faculty will focus on three core pillars of activities:
- Research – expanding the understanding of sensitive skin by filling evidence gaps and advancing in emerging areas
- Innovation – inspiring the development of new solutions to improve diagnosis and care
- Engagement – enhancing the knowledge of healthcare professionals to shape the future of best practice
In partnership with the Department of Dermatology at the George Washington University School of Medicine and Health Sciences, two grants have been awarded to accelerate the mission of the Sensitive Skincare Faculty. The first will establish a Galderma Sensitive Skin Translational Research Fellowship Program over five years to support medical students interested in expanding their research skill set into sensitive skin. The second project, the Galderma Skin Research Acceleration Fund, will span two years and look specifically at establishing a standard definition of sensitive skin.
“Our goal is to transform the science of sensitive skin into actionable insights and practical advice

Faculty members include Adam Friedman (co-chair, U.S.), Giovanni Pellacani (Italy), Martina Kerscher (Germany), Aaron Farberg (U.S.), Flávia Alvim Sant’Anna Addor (Brazil), Belinda Welsh (Australia), Yan Wu (China), Flordeliz Abad-Casintahan (Philippines), Adelaide Hebert (U.S.), Xiang Leihong (China), Laurent Misery (France), Joachim Fluhr (Germany) and Leona Yip (Australia).
The faculty’s inaugural meeting took place at the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology congress in Milan, where members also participated in a Galderma-sponsored symposium on sensitive skin insights and management approaches.

Parse Biosciences Announces FFPE-compatible Barcoding Technology for Whole Transcriptome Single Cell Analysis18.11.2025 14:00:00 CET | Press release
New method enables single cell discovery from archived tissue samples, expanding access to translational and clinical research Parse Biosciences, the leading provider of scalable and accessible single cell sequencing solutions, today announced a breakthrough technology that unlocks the full potential of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) samples. By enabling whole transcriptome capture from archived tissues at single cell resolution, this innovation opens new possibilities for discovery in oncology, translational research, and precision medicine. The use of FFPE samples for single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) has traditionally been limited to profiling a predefined list of genes due to RNA degradation and fragmentation, reducing transcriptome coverage and discovery potential. Parse’s breakthrough overcomes these challenges with a novel split-pool combinatorial barcoding method that enables true transcriptome-wide scRNA-seq of FFPE-preserved tissues through its unique RNA captu
