I first joined the Dermatology Foundation twenty years ago and was struck by the commitment, dedication and energy of our fellow dermatologists. They never lose their enthusiasm, they are truly inspirational. This is the driving force behind the Foundation’s ability to provide early career research support each year.
The entire organization is based on dermatologists volunteering their time to support the specialty. DF award categories represent the full scope of modern dermatology, including grants dedicated to surgery, outcomes research, human appearance, women’s health, and healthcare policy.
This is an era of shrinking healthcare dollars and grant money. If we don’t help our specialty move forward by supporting young dermatologists with great research ideas and skills—who will?
