Report on 2024 AAVLD Annual Meeting Davis-Thompson Pre-Meeting Workshop: Dermatopathology: more than skinny layers
October 11 at the Gaylord Opryland Resort & Convention Center
Nashville, Tennessee
by Francisco Uzal, Course Director
Our two speakers, Drs Aline Rodrigues Hoffmann and Dominique Wiener, did a fantastic job that kept the audience of pathologists and trainees mesmerized during the whole day. The two worked like a well-oiled and synchronized machine, and walked the attendees through all aspects of dermatopathology in small and large animals. The first joint lecture on “Pattern analysis and species differences” set the tone for an incredibly didactic and educational workshop. They continued with the description of a wide variety of skin diseases which were beautifully illustrated with photographs and descriptions of previously scanned slides. The audience unanimously agreed that these two incredibly knowledgeable colleagues explained the sometimes complicated aspects of dermatopathology in a very simple and easy to understand way. Thank you Aline and Dominique!
