Highlights of the 21st Annual South Beach Symposium 2023

The ever-increasing impact of dermatologic conditions continues to be a major challenge for dermatologists and other health care providers in the United States (US). Dermatology practitioners diagnose and treat more than 3000 diseases across the age spectrum.  Therefore, clinicians are challenged to remain current in their knowledge and competence in the diagnosis and management of cutaneous disease.  

The 21st Annual South Beach Symposium, which took place in Miami Beach, FL,  on February 9-12, 2023, addressed many of these gaps and more in an effort to provide evidence-based, practical education for dermatologists and dermatologic practitioners. This activity comprises the most valuable highlights of the educational content presented by nationally recognized dermatology experts, and spanning several disease states in dermatology, including atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, acne, rosacea, and actinic keratoses. This content is available to practitioners who were unable to join us in person to stay up to date on the most prevalent dermatological conditions and their newest treatments.

 

Target Audience

This activity is designed for an audience of physicians, nurses, pharmacists, and other allied health providers (nurse practitioners/physician assistants) in medical practices that specialize in dermatology.

 

Learning Objectives

  • Discuss new and emerging therapies for the treatment of acne
  • Review the safety and efficacy of new and emerging targeted therapies for treatment of atopic dermatitis
  • Review clinical safety and efficacy data for new and emerging agents for treatment of psoriasis
