FACULTY AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

We would like to extend our deepest gratitude to our Senior Editors, Dr. Adam Friedman and Dr. Misty Eleryan, for their unwavering commitment to the representation of all skin tones in dermatologic education. Their dedication to showcasing the nuances of skin tones through side-by-side comparisons of medical images has been instrumental in advancing inclusive dermatology. Thanks to their leadership, the Full Spectrum of Dermatology: A Diverse and Inclusive Atlas has become a vital resource for the medical community, offering royalty-free, watermarked images for non-commercial educational purposes such as lectures and presentations.

Dr. Friedman and Dr. Eleryan have rallied an extraordinary team of leaders in the dermatology field, all equally committed to increasing the visibility of diverse and inclusive images, which are often difficult to find. Together, they have helped build both the print publication and the Inclusive Derm Atlas online gallery, paving the way for a richer and more diverse educational landscape.

We appreciate our ongoing relationship with Galderma and Cetaphil, whose vision aligns with ours. One of our goals together is to continue expanding The Full Spectrum of Dermatology: A Diverse and Inclusive Atlas and increasing the representation of skin tones and skin conditions. Thank you for being part of this important journey!
