The Australasian Society for Dermatology Research (ASDR) is a not for profit organisation whose mission is to promote dermatology research in Australia. Affiliated with the Society of Investigative Dermatology in the USA, the ASDR unites clinicians and scientists participating in Dermatology Research. The Inaugural Annual Scientific Meeting of the ASDR will be held immediately prior to the 37th Annual Scientific Meeting of the Australasian College of Dermatologists.
The focus of the ASDR meeting was the most recent original scientific research, including basic skin biology, cutaneous immunology, stem cell research and pharmacology.
The ASDR meeting provided a forum for dermatologists, immunologists and other medical practitioners to present their research alongside senior scientists and junior researchers.
OBJECTIVES
Learn about recent advances in skin biology, immunology and molecular genetics as it pertains to skin disease
- Utilise new scientific methodologies, tools and applications
- Understand recent advances in cutaneous pharmacology, including antisense therapy and biological fusion molecules that may have a bearing on the future delivery of patient care
- Stimulate new research ideas and foster collaboration
- Enable junior scientists and clinicians to present their work to their peers in a scientific forum
This program was accepted for CPDP Category A accreditation by the Australasian College of Dermatologists.
