S038 – Hot Topics

Saturday, March 26 | 1 – 4 p.m.

Room: Ballroom West

Only the most pressing topics make it to the Hot Topics session each year. And this year is no different! S038 – Hot Topics returns to the Annual Meeting in Boston with a comprehensive list of discussions driven by registrant consensus. Each year’s lineup is a true reflection of member concerns and interests.

This year’s Hot Topics presentations will spotlight multiple medical/surgical topics, including some with social and economic importance. All discussions are designed to aid dermatologists in diagnosing skin diseases more effectively, recognize the implications of their clinical decision-making and apply evidence-based knowledge to treatment and patient care.

The session will explore eight sessions within the three-hour time period. Here’s a look at what you can expect:

Atopic Dermatitis

Eric Lawrence Simpson, MD, FAAD

Hair Disorders and Hair Growth

Jerry Shapiro, MD, FAAD

Lasers and Energy-based Therapies
