The 72nd Annual Montagna Symposium will be held October 16th-20th on the Oregon Coast. The symposium will focus on emerging paradigms in personalized medicine.

Population studies have raised questions about why individuals do not respond to established therapies. Patients are individuals with personalized social, behavioral, and genetic determinants, but knowledge gaps exist regarding how these determinants influence diagnosis and treatment of cutaneous diseases. The goal is to highlight emerging avenues of investigation and streamline their incorporation into clinical medicine.

This event is designed for senior and junior level leaders in the field: scientists, dermatology clinicians, clinical, translational and basic science researchers, and trainees. The format includes lectures, discussions, and many networking opportunities which enable interaction between new and established scientists and dermatologists.

This is an educational project for children aged 7-12, focused on the skin and its role as the body’s largest organ, its health, and common conditions. The cross-media initiative will create an illustrated tactile book which is developed into an e-book and audiobook, as well as podcasts, animations, and a small game, which are all interconnected and offer different ways of exploring and learning. The goal is to build children’s health literacy and stimulate their curiosity for science and understanding of skin biology. Target groups include children, parents, teachers, and venues such as libraries, science centers, and museums.
