Meet the 2019 IPC International Fellows.

The International Fellowship Program aims to increase the number and ability of clinicians and scientists focused on researching and treating psoriasis. Beginning in January 2020, fellows will be matched with, and observe, IPC Board Members and Councilors in their clinics and laboratories to get real world practice in researching, diagnosing, developing treatment plans and monitoring treatment regiments for psoriasis patients. In addition, the program will provide an opportunity for IPC Fellows to develop on-going relationships with key opinion leaders by participating in IPC programs and activities throughout the one-year Fellowship period.

Eligibility

Fellowships are available to early career dermatologists in training or junior faculty who have completed their training within the last five years and are interested in improving their abilities to treat and manage psoriasis patients, gain exposure to international key opinion leaders and develop leadership skills among peers.
