The certificate in detail
The German Dermatological Academy (DDA) has officially commissioned the ISDT to shape the content of the certificate: the Society develops the curriculum and organises the training seminars. Prof. Elsner was particularly involved in developing the curriculum — the publication in “Aktuelle Dermatologie” presents the certificate in detail (released by the publisher for our website).
