Venue: Lyon, France
When: 12th – 15th May 2027
Â
The World Congress in Dermoscopy comes around every 3 years and next year it will be held in Lyon. Many think dermoscopy is the realm of the dermatologist but as this event is demonstrating, that is far from the truth.

The 2027 Congress will be open to all healthcare professionals. If you are new to dermoscopy it will even host introductory classes on how to use the device as well as session for advanced users. The programme is not completed yet but there will be session on uses outside of medicine – podiatry, physiotherapy and paramedics for example. Abstracts are welcome from allied health professions to demonstrate the diffusion of this technique to all healthcare professionals involved in skin care.

I spoke to Professor Luc Thomas, the conference chair about this recently. See the video below.
