On behalf of the Skin of Color Society’s Scientific Committee, we thank you to all who attended the 16th Annual Skin of Color Society Symposium held virtually on May 7-12th, 2020. We hope you enjoyed the program!

The curated Symposium virtual experience brought together international colleagues, residents, and research fellows who present on new research, share experiences, and discuss the new direction of the special interest of dermatology–skin of color aiming to educate SOCS members from the safety and comfort of their home or office.

Poster and Oral presenters had the opportunity to walk viewers through their presentation via audio and video presentations. Oral presentations will be accessible on our virtual program as prerecorded videos and a simplified PowerPoint presentation. As we near the launch of the virtual program, the link to presentations will be available here.

We had an amazing new virtual symposium and would like to thank everyone who logged in to create this unique experience. 

Once in-person meetings can take place again, we will hold a networking reception to honor our 2020 outgoing board members, research grant winners, and observership grant recipients. Our plan is to host this reception during one of the larger dermatological meetings held later in the year.

We look forward to virtually engaging with you and when the current crisis has abated, networking and socializing in-person.

Sincerely,
Lynn McKinley-Grant, MD, MA, SOCS President
