title: A report from the 72nd annual meeting of the American Academy of Dermatology (March 21-25 - Denver, Colorado, USA).
abstract: March, at 5,000 feet above sea level, is not the best season for having much skin exposed, particularly when snow flurries are coming down on one's face. However, that was the time and place for sharing or getting new knowledge of skin science during this year's annual meeting of the American Academy of Dermatology. At high altitude, a high level of science was constant throughout the meeting sessions, including, notably, the Latest in Dermatology Research symposium held on Saturday March 22, and the electronic poster presentations available to attendees throughout the conference. This report summarizes the most significant new scientific findings reported during the meeting, which have a direct impact on how diseases of the skin are or will possibly be treated in the foreseen future.
