Why your support counts

Since its founding, over 5,000 researchers, clinicians, and young investigators from all over the world have attended the Montagna Symposium on the Biology of Skin. With your help, the Symposium will continue to fulfill its mission to thoroughly cover one aspect of skin biology annually, identifying unsolved problems and long term goals; to allow the exchange and acquisition of new knowledge on a formal basis and provide a proving ground for new concepts, as well as sharing information with the greater scientific and medical community; to integrate topics at the interfaces of disciplines, fostering new collaborations and developing and translating animal models, where necessary, to human benefit; and to encourage young investigators in pursuit of careers in academic and investigational dermatology by interacting with established scientists and physicians.
