Podium Competition:

Prizes for Texas Dermatology Resident Members will be awarded for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place.

REMINDER: Only Texas Dermatology Residents are eligible to win the three main awards.
Medical Students & Research Fellows are welcome to participate!

The remaining submissions will be presented virtually. If there is not space allowed for in-person medical student podiums, all podiums will be eligible for virtual presentations.
