This activity is designed for physicians and other healthcare professionals and aims to address the knowledge gap in diagnosing and treating complex, difficult and rare dermatological conditions. By bringing together experts, the program provides a platform for healthcare providers to gain evidence-based insights and multiple expert opinions, which are crucial for forming accurate diagnoses and effective treatment plans. This collaborative approach is designed to improve patient outcomes, especially for those who cannot access specialized dermatology care at university settings.
