SCIENTIFIC PROGRAMME

Building on its reputation as a high quality internationally-renowned event, the BAD is delighted to announce the Annual Meeting of 2010. The annual meeting committee has again worked hard to provide a blend of new scientific presentations with updates from experts in various formats.

The meeting has been compacted into three full days, the Friday CPD session will now take place on the Thursday afternoon. As such the Annual Dinner will now be on Wednesday evening, with the  Welcome Reception taking place in the exhibition hall on Tuesday evening.
 

The Arthur Rook Oration this year will be delivered by Dr Joseph Jorizzo, from North Carolina, USA, presenting on ‘Neutrophilic vascular reactions’.

Professor Frank Nestle from London will open the guest lectures on Tuesday with a talk on 'From genes to function and therapy in Psoriasis’. He will be followed later that afternoon by the Professor Sir Borysiewicz, Chief Executive of the General Medical Council speaking on the topic of Research. Wednesday's programme will incorporate Dr Jean Bolognia of New Haven, USA addressing the audience with an ‘Update on cutaneous side effects of chemotherapy'. The final guest lecture will come from Professor Sarah Thomas on Thursday afternoon talking on ‘Current thinking in medical education’.

 

Medical Dermatology features strongly in the programme with a dedicated session on Wednesday afternoon. We have Satellite Symposium each day and will continue as will the poster viewing slot before the AGM on Wednesday morning. Professors Chris Griffiths, Alex Anstey and Edel O’Toole will be joined by the selected registrars for the Professors and Registrars forum on Thursday morning We will finish with the popular CPD session in its new Thursday afternoon slot.
