Handouts and Sendoffs

July 2008

Have you ever wondered what kind of educational handouts your colleagues might be using that would be beneficial to your patients, as well?

It was with this question in mind that Senior Editor Ellen Meyer set about to create a new column, which is debuting in this issue.The column, dubbed Helpful Handouts, will focus on materials created by dermatologists for use in their own practices. Each column will highlight a select handout and invite you to photocopy it for use in your practice.

In our debut column, New Hampshire-based dermatologists Dr.William Danby and his colleague and wife Dr. Lynne Margesson share a handout created to educate patients about sun protection. Not only are the basics discussed but also specific information about recommended sunscreens and UV protective film for windows, and more.

We hope you’ll find this handout helpful for your patients.Take a look at the new column beginning on page 22.

PASSING THE TORCH

For the past nearly 7 years I have served as Executive Editor of Skin & Aging and have been proud to see the publication change and grow over that time. I don’t know if you remember, but back in July of 2003, we still had the flesh-colered background on all of our covers. My how things have changed! I want to thank all of you who have been such excellent contributors to Skin & Aging over the years, and I want to especially thank all of our editorial board members and Chief Medical Editor Dr. Steve Feldman — the man who always takes a fresh look at issues and problems and who would much rather eat a roast beef sandwich at a corner deli than sit down to dinner at a four-star restaurant! Two qualities I greatly admire.

Leaving is bittersweet, but I do it with great comfort because a well-seasoned editor who has lots of experience editing in the field of dermatology will grab the torch and run with it, so to speak.

Stefanie Tuleya is a former Managing Editor of Skin & Aging, a position she held for 5 years before being promoted to special projects editor in dermatology, which she has done for the past 2 years. I know her and her work very well and couldn’t think of a better person to light the way to a new era of Skin & Aging.

If you have article ideas or thoughts on the publication, or just want to congratulate Stef, feel free to contact her at stuleya@hmpcommunications.com.

Since I don’t have any trademark sign-off such as “. . . and that’s the way it is,” or “Good night, and good luck,” or “I’m outta here,” I’ll simply say, that I’ve enjoyed every moment, and keep letting the good times roll!
