title: [Dermatology].
abstract: Many significant advances in dermatology were published during 2009, focussing on infectious diseases, inflammatory disorders and oncology. Molecular medicine, as a result of the human genome project, also modifies the field of dermatology. Bioinformatics and biotechnology revolutionize the daily clinical practice in dermatology. A change of paradigm occurs notably in infectious diseases.
