Clinical Pre-Meeting Course: Tropical Dermatology Saturday, October 27, 2018, Noon - 5 pm Sunday, October 28, 2018, 7 am – 4 pm Sheraton New Orleans, New Orleans, LA, United States This 1.5-day course offers an overview of Tropical Dermatology, an essential component of tropical medicine. The course is designed for clinicians who are already familiar with clinical tropical medicine, either from working in tropical environments or from seeing patients returning from the tropics. Saturday’s session is devoted to cutaneous leishmaniasis (the latest information about the rapidly changing epidemiology, diagnosis, management). Skin conditions will be reviewed from the standpoint of diagnosing and treating individual patients – and from managing skin diseases on a population basis. This course will use several didactic methods, including lectures, lively Jeopardy-style presentations, panel discussions, hands-on practice with methods to treat cutaneous leishmaniasis, and opportunities to view pathogens and skin diseases under microscopy. The target audience includes clinicians who want to develop a deeper understanding of cutaneous leishmaniasis and other skin diseases found in the tropics, and expand their knowledge and skills needed to provide optimal care for this population.
