On Sunday, March 4th, 2023, the UTMB Dermatology and Plastics Reconstructive Surgery Interests Groups teamed up with the AIM at Melanoma Foundation to host the 17th Annual Melanoma Walk at The Fort Crockett Park on Seawall. The event was a fun-filled morning with delicious food, live music, exciting raffle prizes from local venues, and over 30 participants who completed a 1-mile walk or 5k run. Thanks to the support of all the participants and sponsors, the walk helped raise over $1000 in support of melanoma research. Thank you to the organizers and volunteers who helped make this event a success!!
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.
