PRESIDENT’S LETTERDear Members of the MDS:On behalf of the Medical Dermatology Society (MDS) Board of Directors, I would like to welcome you to the 2019MDS Annual Meeting. It is indeed an exciting time to be a medical dermatologist. In response, the MDS continuesto grow and remain ever adaptable, motivated, and responsive to addressing the needs of our patients and togrowing the field of medical dermatology. The MDS is committed to sharing knowledge, facilitating collaborativeopportunities, and supporting the development of inspired dermatologists who will advance our specialty.Advances in basic science and translational research are changing the landscape of how we evaluate and treat ourcomplex patients. It is therefore a distinct pleasure to present the 2019 program, one that we hope you find bothinnovative and practical. Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS) is a perfect example of an understudied, yet debilitatingdisease, notorious for its associated morbidity and challenge therapeutically. Dr. Haley Naik, who has made HSher research and clinical focus, will present a deeper understanding of this condition in her keynote address.Translational research is vital for the identification and development of new therapies for old diseases. Dr. AimeePayne will present how basic science has led to innovative immunotherapy for pemphigus vulgaris. Genetics playsa role in all diseases. Dr. Keith Choate will help us understand the role of genetics in understanding cutaneousdisease. Connective tissue diseases and calcifying disorders of the skin have a home in medical dermatologyand are some of the most challenging conditions we treat. Dr. Ruth Ann Vleugels will discuss clinical pearls andtherapies for dermatomyositis and Dr. Adam I. Schiffenbauer will expound on the evaluation and treatment ofectopic calcification. We are grateful to Drs. Victoria Werth, past President and Lifetime Achievement AwardRecipient and Warren Heymann, our 2018 Lifetime Achievement Award Recipient, for sharing their rich andinvaluable expertise in the Clinical Pearls section of our meeting. Finally, we look forward to celebrating theaccomplishments and contributions of Dr. Janet Fairley, this year’s very deserving Lifetime Achievement AwardRecipient. I would like to thank the members of the MDS Committees and Board who have worked throughoutthe year to ensure a quality meeting.Many of the diseases we treat carry significant potential morbidity and mortality. Yet they are rare and difficultto study. The MDS is proud to announce that this year, we have introduced a pre-meeting Research WorkingGroup, whose goal will be to tackle these issues through collaborative research throughout the year. Althoughclearly still in its infancy, the potential outcomes from such cooperation amongst like-minded dermatologists isboundless. I am very excited to see where this takes our field.Thank you for attending the MDS Annual Meeting and bringing your expertise and passion to our gathering. Asleaders in the field of medical dermatology, you have the vision, knowledge, and drive to propel our missionahead. You are truly our greatest asset and we could not accomplish what we do without your support. If youhave any questions regarding any MDS activities, please do not hesitate to reach out to me directly or to ouradministrative office. Welcome to Washington, D.C and the 2019 Annual Meeting!Sincerely,Lindy P. Fox, MDPresident, Medical Dermatology Society3
