Lindsay Shaw and Jacqui Sinch presented their experience of running a dermatology/ rheumatology joint clinic in Bristol with excellent cases demonstrating the many benefits of collaboration including patients outcomes and colleague support. Carsten Flohr gave a really wonderful pragmatic, clinically focused update on systemic treatments in atopic dermatitis- a transformed clinical area over the past decade and impressive work to keep the research ongoing and available for patients and clinicians. There were several fantastic abstracts including Celia Moss discussing the need for clearer labelling on topical steroids following a survey of patients, Rikshana Ali presenting data on a new history taking tool – You and Your Skin (YAYS) and Zahra Moledina presenting the mental health guidance which many BSPAD members have helped develop. This will shortly be published in the BJD – we hope you all find it useful.
