Welcome to HDS 2025

Dear HDS Member:

This year, the History of Dermatology Society will convene during the annual AAD meeting in Orlando, Florida. The annual meeting will take place on Thursday, March 6, 2025.

We will begin at 10:00 am with a museum tour of the Orlando Museum of Art (2416 N. Mills Ave. Orlando, Fl 32803). Following our tour of the museum, we will return to the Rosen Centre Hotel (9840 International Drive Orlando, FL 32819) where lunch will be served at 12:00 PM and the seminar will begin at 1:00 PM.

The Annual Dinner and Zakon Lecture will be held at Christini’s Ristorante Italiano (7600 Dr Phillips Blvd Orlando, FL 32819) starting at 6:30 PM. The annual Samuel J. Zakon Lecture will be delivered by Dr. Christopher Bunker, and the evening festivities will be enhanced by the annual toasts in memory of Marion B. Sulzberger, Herman Beerman, Samuel J. Zakon, and John T. Crissey. Dr. Mark Valentine will conclude the evening when he announces the winner of the 2025 Samuel J. Zakon Prize.

Cordially yours,
