Where this comes from

Abstract

In defying conventional views that dismissed itch as trivial, I persisted in studying basophils and ILC2s in human skin and atopic dermatitis. My research on JAK inhibitors for itch ultimately led to FDA-approved drugs. This is my story of disregarding categories and definitions-a story about an unconventional path in science that emphasizes innovation over conformity.
