| Message from the ISD President
 Torello Lotti, MD
Welcome! Our goals for global dermatology are to expand high-quality educational opportunities, provide international educational experiences, address global issues affecting patient health and care, and to meet the needs of underserved patients.
At the X International Congress of Dermatology (XICD) held in Prague (May 2009), the global reach of ISD was in evidence. Over 105 countries were represented and over 347 scholarships distributed.
Never resting, we announced two new initiatives to address Climate Change & Dermatology and underserved populations with Community Dermatology. At the same time, ISD will continue to expand successful programs including our Mentoring Program, Regional Meetings and our Maria Duran Awards and lectures.
So please, support our goals by becoming a member. As a member you will receive the International Journal of Dermatology – the print and online versions – as part of your membership dues. The cost savings are astounding – you will save over $250 US on the individual subscription rate.
Please join. Together, we can make our great Society even stronger!
Dr. Torello Lotti (Italy)
President, International Society of Dermatology
