UTMB DIG members are among the most academically productive medical students for abstract submissions to multiple dermatology meetings, including TDS, AAD, NSRP, and dermatology subspecialty meetings. Our medical students are often the first author, with “trifecta“ collaborating co-authors (dermatology residents/fellows and faculty). In an effort to keep track of all of this activity, DIG members are requested to submit copies of all their submitted abstracts to Ms. Michelle Karn (mikarn@utmb.edu) in the Dermatology Chair’s office. UTMB residents and fellows are required to submit an abstract in order to be reimbursed for travel and meeting registration by the department, even though their abstract may not be accepted for a presentation where it is submitted for consideration.
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.
