P001 – Opening Ceremony
5-6:30 p.m. | Friday, March 27
Bellco Theatre

Purpose, passion, and service to community — values that have driven the careers of both AAD President Susan Taylor, MD, FAAD, and Annual Meeting keynote speaker John Legend.

Don’t miss the Opening Ceremony for a thought-provoking conversation that will touch on everything — from the early influences that shaped their pathbreaking careers, the power of collaboration in driving innovation in art and medicine, and the importance of giving back to the larger community while remaining rooted in family.

This enlightening event will continue the AAD’s tradition of featuring speakers who challenge us to see our work in new ways, spark innovative thinking, and remind us of the broader impact dermatology has on patients and populations.
