2022 Annual Report
As the 2022 calendar year ended and a new year began, we recognized that we are only one year away from the Dermatology Foundation’s 60th anniversary. Since 1964, the purpose of the DF has remained simple but powerful. For nearly six decades, the DF identified and supported the early career work of investigators with great potential. Our research awards have helped launch outstanding research and academic careers and have helped make the practice of dermatology what it is today.

discoveries, treatments, and cures.
