The American Academy of Dermatology, in collaboration with Johnson & Johnson Consumer Health and Janssen, is launching Pathways: Inclusivity in Dermatology to increase the number of practicing dermatologists who are underrepresented minorities in medicine (URiM). Through scholarship offerings, skills workshops, mentorship programs, and leadership training, Pathways aims to increase the number of dermatology residents from Black, Latino, and Indigenous communities from approximately 100 residents to 250, or by over 50%, by 2027.
