The meeting took place at The Whitley Atlanta Buckhead in Atlanta, Georgia.

Dermatology residents and rheumatology fellows.

Medical trainees in dermatology and rheumatology specialties, specifically dermatology residents and rheumatology fellows pursuing advanced clinical training.

Attendance was by application. Applications for 2026 are closed.

Topics were scheduled to include review of recent advances in treating psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis, managing disease in skin of color and special populations, strategies to reduce costs and barriers, and networking with peers and academic providers.

Clinicians and trainees at medical education meetings usually wear business casual, such as slacks, blouses or collared shirts, with a light layer for cool meeting rooms.

It suits dermatology residents and rheumatology fellows, since the program was scheduled to review advances in psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis and was co-chaired by Lourdes Perez-Chada of Harvard and Alexis Ogdie of the University of Pennsylvania. Attendance was by application, which closed before selection decisions in May, so it was not open to late registrants; established specialists would get less from it than trainees.
