Programme at a glance
Sessions of different formats will cover the most important topics in dermatology and venereology. Subjects will be treated with different approaches and from different perspectives depending on the type and structure of the session.
- Focus on: These sessions aim at providing comprehensive in-depth coverage of a certain topic in dermatology. The talks will be included in sessions on pathophysiology / epidemiology, clinical challenges, or practical aspects of disease management and will provide the latest cutting-edge information.
- What's new: These sessions will enable participants to update their knowledge on a specific topic and hear about the most relevant and recent developments, guidelines and practical knowledge from the past year. The talks will summarize the current understanding of the subject, followed by an update on the most recent novelties with their impact on clinical practice.
- Free communications: Authors of the most highly ranked abstracts assessed by a selected panel of abstract reviewers are invited to provide a 10-minute oral presentation.
- Plenary Session: The Plenary lectures are EADV show-case sessions and include key-note lectures delivered by eminent scientists and doctors.
- Interactive clinical cases: These lectures focus on a specific disease and include basic information about epidemiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis, management and prognosis. The target audience of these sessions is young dermatology trainees and residents, as well as dermatologists that want to refresh their basic knowledge on specific topics. The topic of each presentation should be developed from clinical cases and include clinical photographs. The main objective is to provide the audience clues for differential diagnosis and disease management in their daily practice. Each presentation is supposed to be interactive, with multiple-choice question made to the audience in accordance with the subjects treated in the talks. Each speaker will be asked to include 2-3 questions by “data” along with the different answers’ options.
- Breaking news: This session type provides an update in rapidly changing fields of dermatology. It is a critical analysis of published data of last years, including new relevant information and latest development. The objective is to provide new clinically relevant and practical applicable information to be used in daily practice.
