European Academy of Dermatology & Venereology
EADV is committed to building the international community that develops, shares, and adopts best practices within dermatology and venereology.
Skin and venereal diseases are continuously evolving, as are the science and practices for preventing, diagnosing and treating them. Advancements are being made every day that have the potential to have a significant impact on the ongoing battle to improve skin and sexual health around the world.
Enabling these advancements to be validated, and ensuring the best practices are adopted by all professionals, is what ultimately moves dermatology and venereology forward.
EADV and its international community of passionate professionals define and spread best practices for the benefit of all. We are a true platform for collaboration and progress across borders and sub-specialities. Expert task forces shape standards and develop best practice guidelines, while our events, publications and educational courses share them with our members and the broader community so they can adopt them for maximum impact.
With over 9’500 members and an active community of more than 14’000 professionals around the world, our goal is to be the trusted source for proven scientific advancements and practices in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of skin and venereal diseases.
Together for better
