UTMB Dermatology Resident's Lip Protection Research Appears In Dermatology Times
Dr. Josh Diimmick's recently published academic research paper in Cosmetic Dermatology about lip protection with SPF products used at the beach was featured in an article that appeared in the November 2007 issue of Dermatology Times (Melville NA. Lips: Sunscreens' final frontier? Study finds UV protection awareness is low. Dermatology Times, Volume 28, Number 11, November 2007, pages 46-47). Dr. Dimmick is currently a second year resident in the Department of Dermatology at UTMB. He is continuing to research SPF lip protection use in patients with a history of nonmelanoma skin cancer(s) to fulfill the "Scholarly Project" UTMB dermatology residency program requirement. Good luck with your ongoing research, Josh!
