Dr. Hassan Galadari, Head of the Scientific Committee for Dubai Derma, said: “This year’s Dubai Derma is a celebration of the field, the people working in it and those training to be future dermatologists. The meeting promises an event that is equally educational and interactive as it is engaging and relevant. If you love dermatology and have that passion for it, you will need to attend.”
Dubai Derma 2023 also comprises four-days of pre-conferences and workshops that include specialised courses before the initial event, from February 26th to March 1st, which deal with the latest scientific developments in the treatment of serious and cosmetic skin diseases.
