The 7th Annual SOCS Media Day led to the creation of a comprehensive video series designed to educate patients, physicians, and the general public about dermatologic conditions and diseases of importance to people of color.
Several SOCS leaders, who are nationally and globally recognized board-certified dermatologists, contributed their expertise to this informative video series, including: Victoria Barbosa, MD, MPH, MBA, current President; Andrew F. Alexis, MD, MPH, Immediate Past President; Shawn Kwatra, MD, Secretary/Treasurer; Janiene Luke, MD, Board Member and Media Day Co-chair; Nkem Ugonabo, MD, Media Day Co-chair; Prince Adotama, MD, Board Member, and Nada Elbuluk, MD, MSc, President-Elect.
Building on the existing SOCS collection of educational content, the latest series features several compelling videos, as follows:
