Your Academy is a series of in-person symposiums and online educational events that are focused on core and emerging dermatology and dermatopathology topics. The goal is to improve each physician and clinician's clinicopathologic correlation, which leads to better patient management. About It is now more important than ever to understand the importance of the close cross-fertilization that occurs among dermatology, dermatopathology, and industry. In order to plan optimal treatment and provide the best patient care, correlation between dermatologists and pathologists is crucial. In this ever-changing field, clinicopathologic correlation also helps to guide research, new drugs, and device product development within dermatology. We hope you will join us at one of our upcoming conferences or events! Clay J.
