tasks and goals

The association has set itself the task of bringing dermatological surgeons together internationally. In this way, innovative techniques and work can be standardized on a qualified level, and the training and further education programs for dermatological surgery can be improved.

In addition, the association promotes further training and research in the field of dermatological and cosmetic surgery and related fields. Once a year, an international scientific congress takes place on different continents.

The ISDS ENVOY appears several times a year and is accessible to all members.

Congresses

The annual conference offers participants the opportunity to discuss knowledge and developments in the field of dermatological surgery with one another. The latest developments and experiences are also demonstrated in practical workshops and rounded off by a scientific supporting program.

Granting of scholarships

The scholarship, which can be traced back to the founder of the ISDS, Perry Robins, is awarded annually to a person who has a particular interest in continuing their training in dermatological surgery.
