Film About Nails Added to UTMB Skin Diseases in Cinema Course
The film, Touch: When Words Are Not Enough, has been added to the required film list for DERU-4007 and DERU-4051 starting in Period 11 of the current academic year at UTMB SOM. It will replace the film, The English Patient, because the class is now using the foreign film, The Skin I Live In, for thermal burn content. Touch addresses the importance of normal nails, and the industry built around them.
