Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted seminar series, grand rounds, and national/international conferences. Although there is value in in-person meetings, the pandemic has also highlighted the opportunity for exchanging information in a virtual setting. Here, we comment on our experience in organizing “Global Dermatology Talks” (GDT) during the COVID-19 pandemic to address the immediate needs of the dermatology education community. Such virtual entities might supplement in-person exchange of academic and research information going forward to promote diversity, equity, and inclusion in addition to positive environmental impacts.
