Innovations in Dermatology 2026

The 2026 course takes place at Hawks Cay Resort in Duck Key, Florida.

The organizer identifies dermatology clinicians, wound care professionals, researchers, industry professionals, academic trainees, clinician-scientists, and allied health teams as potential attendees.

It suits dermatologists, wound care clinicians and clinician-scientists who want the science behind new therapies tied to bedside practice, since the sessions run from skin biology to biologics, energy-based devices, scarring, itch and hair regeneration. Clinicians whose main need is practice management or coding updates would get less from it, because the program is built around emerging science and translational topics, taught through lectures, panels and case presentations. Wound care specialists gain a further reason to go because a separate wound healing conference is partnered with it as a pre-meeting event.

Clinicians and researchers at resort-based medical courses usually dress in relaxed resort casual, such as chinos, polos and sundresses, with a light layer for air-conditioned session rooms.
