Sneak Peek: 2nd Annual Dermatology Refresher Symposium for NPs and PAs

Jashin J. Wu, MD, FAAD

Join us for the 2nd Annual Dermatology Refresher Symposium (DRS) for NPs and PAs to be held as a live meeting on April 8-10, 2022, at the Grand Hyatt San Antonio River Walk in San Antonio, Texas. The DRS is sponsored by the Dermatology Research and Education Foundation (DREF). The DRS is a 3-day symposium that will offer 15 CME credits and educate practitioners on the latest developments in dermatology. DRS was designed for dermatology nurse practitioners, dermatology physician assistants, and other advanced practice providers involved in the care of patients with skin disease. A total of 11 renowned faculty will present updates on clinically relevant topics, including acne, actinic keratosis, atopic dermatitis, biologics, connective tissue diseases, ​cryotherapy, cutaneous lupus, dermoscopy, hidradenitis suppurativa, hyperhidrosis, nonmelanoma skin cancer, ​pediatric dermatology, psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, rosacea, surgical complications, and ​warts/molluscum. Aesthetic dermatology topics include botulinum toxins and fillers, cosmeceuticals, lasers and other aesthetic devices, and sclerotherapy.

Jashin J. Wu, MD, will discuss a topic rarely seen at dermatology conferences: personal finance and stock investing. In his 50-minute lecture, he will discuss why and how to invest in stocks; the difference between stocks, mutual funds, and ETFs; stock terminology; how to analyze stocks; and the difference between various retirement accounts.

In addition, all who register for 2022 DRS will receive automatic and complimentary registration to the virtual 2022 Skin Cancer Symposium and the Symposium for Inflammatory Skin Disease and receive an additional 15 hours of complimentary CME credit. Attendees will receive a total of 30 CME hours for attending 2022 DRS!

DREF greatly supports medical education, so registration is free for the first 50 NPs/PAs who graduated in 2020-2022!

The atmosphere of DRS will have a flavor different from any other dermatology conference, incorporating learning with giveaways, prizes, and games that will keep engagement levels high for both attendees and exhibitors. More than 90 prizes will be given away!
