One of the nice things about the annual American Academy of Dermatology meeting, aside from the fact that you get to see a fantastic city, pow-wow with your peers and immerse yourself in all aspects of dermatology, is that you can get all this and can meet continuing medical education (CME) requirements, too. This is a great opportunity for physicians, medical students, nurses, office personnel and researchers to expand educational horizons.
