HIGHLIGHTS GVF’S ANNUAL SCIENTIFIC SYMPOSIUM
The Global Vitiligo Foundation hosted our Annual Scientific Symposium on March 6, 2025 in Orlando, Florida, as part of the American Academy of Dermatology Annual Meeting. We were excited and honored to welcome over 140 dermatologists, residents, medical students, persons with vitiligo, and industry representatives from around the world. We are especially grateful to our “Patients with Vitiligo Perspectives” panelists who shared their experiences with our attendees: Jarrett Brown, Shahnawaz Towheed, Sharolyn Hagen and Chaired by Dr. Richard Huggins. Hearing directly from persons with vitiligo ensures that GVF’s work remains patient-centered as we further our mission to improve the quality of life for individuals with vitiligo through education, research, clinical care, and community support. We were honored to welcome esteemed guest speakers who shared their expertise and insights with us. Presentations by Dr. Chau Yee Ng and Dr. Tasneem Mohammad sparked important conversations and inspired attendees to continue advocating for vitiligo research and awareness.
