GlobalSkin 2017 Conference Highlights

gs2017 delegates

Last month, patient leaders from nearly 20 countries ─ from as far away as Africa India, Russia, Australia and North America ─ convened in Europe near Geneva in Ferney-Voltaire, France for the GlobalSkin 2017 Conference.  The GlobalSkin Team was thrilled to be able to bring together such a diverse group of dermatology patient leaders from around the world representing a significant number of disease areas.

Delegates participated in two and a half days of networking, learning and sharing.  It was a very full program which included eight plenary sessions, 20 workshops, our Annual General Meeting and a half-day Patient Perspectives Symposium.
