The stratum corneum is a magnificent example of the successful adaptation of a tissue. Its efficient function is a prerequisite for life itself. We depend on its control of the movement of water through the skin and on its protective role in the prevention of penetration by pathogens or harmful substances. Apart from its functional importance, there is no escaping the fact that the most common skin disorders (psoriasis, eczema, inherited disorders of keratinization, acne) are 'characterised by abnormal keratinization and or scaliness. Despite all this, understanding of its chemistry, structure, physiology and involvement in disease has been sadly deficient; however, there are signs of enlightenment. This symposium is evidence of changed atti· tudes. Leading researchers from many countries have applied modem biomedical techniques and the methods of molecular biology to the many problems and questions posed by the stratum corneum. Although there have been several symposia and publications on the process of keratinization, few have been broadly based on the stratum corneum. For this reason we believe that the proceedings of this symposium will be invaluable for all who are profeSSionally concerned with skin biology. Cardiff/Diisseldorf, November 1982 R. Marks G.

The stratum corneum exemplifies the successful adaptation of tissue, essential for life due to its role in regulating water movement and protecting against pathogens and harmful substances. Its significance extends beyond functionality, as common skin disorders like psoriasis, eczema, and acne are linked to abnormal keratinization and scaliness. Despite its importance, understanding of the stratum corneum's chemistry, structure, physiology, and role in diseases has been limited. However, recent advancements indicate a shift in perspective. This symposium showcases the efforts of leading researchers from various countries who have utilized modern biomedical techniques and molecular biology to address the challenges associated with the stratum corneum. While there have been discussions on keratinization, few have focused comprehensively on the stratum corneum. Thus, the proceedings from this symposium are expected to be invaluable for professionals engaged in skin biology. Acknowledgments are extended to various organizations and companies that contributed to the symposium's success, highlighting the collaborative effort in advancing the understanding of this vital skin layer.
