Conference
AAD 2017
Dear Reader,

I am pleased to announce that the 75th American Academy of Dermatology - Annual meeting in Orlando was successfully conducted this year. Our report has covered all the scientific programme about new developments, with deep discussions.

We have chosen few highlights which we are presenting in the report; including late breaking session, atopic dermatitis, cardiovascular comorbidities in psoriasis, skin cancer, hair loss and aesthetic medicines.

In addition, I am delighted to welcome new advisory board members who have invested their valuable time in reviewing and providing expert opinions.

We hope that you enjoy our report and see you again next year at AAD.

Thanks for reading!

With best regards,

Prof. dr. Peter van de Kerkhof
