Atopic Dermatitis & Skin Infections Request More Information Trial Objective The purpose of this study is to learn more about skin cells and how they regulate the skin barrier. Studies indicate that those with atopic dermatitis and psoriasis may be more susceptible to bacterial infections. Our researchers will use samples from patients with atopic dermatitis, psoriasis and healthy people to examine the differences in their genes. Researchers also will be trying to determine if inflammation effects the function of skin cells. Enrollment New enrollment for this trial is temporarily paused Who Can Participate Adults with atopic dermatitis (eczema) or psoriasis, as well as adults with normal, healthy skin. Age: 18-65 Gender: Any Gender Estimated Time Commitment Up to 3 visits or approximately 3 hours × Payments are intended to compensate the participant for their time and effort during the study. Payments are typically given to the participant at the end of each completed study visit. Reimbursements are intended to compensate the participant for travel-related expenses. They must be approved by the study staff and require you to turn in receipts. Travel reimbursement will vary from study to study.
