AAD Scholarship report by Julianne Clowry

I was delighted to receive a Registration Scholarship to attend the American Academy of Dermatology Annual Meeting held this year in sunny Orlando, Florida.

High winds in New York and a rescheduled flight almost scuppered plans to arrive in time for the Academy’s International Scholarship reception, but with some last minute luck, I made it to the home of “the magic kingdom.”

Here, we were welcomed by esteemed members of the Academy, including Jean Bolgnia, who mingled at ease with the crowd, despite her celebrity status!
