Conferences

The Department of Dermatology Grand Rounds are held the first Thursday of every month and CME credit is offered. Patient viewing is held from 9:00 to 10:00 AM, followed by a discussion on the cases until 11:00 AM. Four hours CME credit may be awarded for participation.

Grand Rounds presents a focus case with learning objectives, and additional interesting cases are also presented. Physicians interested in bringing or sending a patient to Grand Rounds should notify our Dermatology Clinic (434-924-5115) for appropriate scheduling. Visitors should call the clinic before coming to Charlottesville to ensure there is no cancellation due to weather, holidays or the ABD annual in-service examination.

The University of Virginia Department of Dermatology EP Cawley series is held once a year.  This lecture series is named in honor of the late E.P. Cawley, M.D., former department chairman and professor Emeritus. The Cawley lectureship is the highest honor accorded by the department to our colleagues from other universities. Nationally-renowned dermatologists are invited by the residents to present a lecture series available for CME credit.

Two Cawley lectures are held on Wednesday afternoon from 12:00 to 4:00; the third is presented at 8:00 AM prior to Grand Rounds. Please call the Dermatology Clinic to verify dates and times before traveling to Charlottesville.
