“The International Alliance of Dermatology Patient Organizations (also known as GlobalSkin) and the European Society for Dermatological Research (ESDR) cohosted an online Roundtable “Addressing Under-Prioritized SkinDiseases : Policy Responses to High-Burden Conditions” on February 6, 2024. This initiative was prompted by the European Commission’s 2023 discussion paper entitled “Scoping Study on Evidence to Address High-Burden Under-Researched Medical Conditions” in which skin and subcutaneous diseases were identified as one of the 12 therapeutic areas defined as high burden and under-researched. The event convened a diverse array of experts, policymakers, and stakeholders in the field of dermatology and public health. Speakers formulated a set of policy recommendations aimed to address the current challenges in dermatology, proposing actionable strategies to foster greater awareness, allocate resources effectively, and enact supportive public health policies.”
