Representatives from academia and industry will convene and discuss prevailing topics with the intent of providing a contemporary and prospective approach to optimizing dermatologic procedures in patients as well as educating and mentoring early career dermatologists on key practice principles in the clinical setting. The program has been in existence for 7 years and has fostered a new generation of dermatologists providing an outlook on skill sets required in their practices.
