On Thursday, March 9th, Dr. Richard Wagner, Dr. William Tausend (PGY3), and Dr. Lindy Ross (PGY3) helped host a procedural workshop for UTMB students. Students were given a lecture on surgical instruments and techniques frequently used by dermatologists as well as taught how to perform tangential biopsies, punch biopsies, injections and suturing techniques. They were then allowed to practice these skills on tomatoes, marshmallows, and pigs' feet! Thank you to Drs. Wagner, Tausend, and Ross for holding such a great workshop!
The University of Texas Medical Branch Dermatology Interest Group (UTMB DIG) is a resource for medical students interested in Dermatology as well as for dermatologists and residents.
