The Department of Pathology, Amrita Institute of Medical Sciences and Research Centre (AIMS), Kochi proudly presents the 4 th Amrita Annual Pathology Update (AAPUD 2021) - UPDATE IN DERMATOLOGIC DISEASES- A Clinicopathologic Jugalbandhi to be held on 15 - 17th July 2021. And respecting the pandemic related restrictions, we are doing this as a virtual event. We are also collaborating with our clinical colleagues in Department of Dermatology, AIMS and jointly organising the CME

The purpose of this 3 day online academic bonanza is to discuss the varied spectrum of inflammatory, immune, pigmentary and neoplastic diseases and the recent updates in the ever evolving field of dermatology and dermatopathology through lectures, didactic talks, case based panel discussions/slide seminars and live slide viewing. The CME will enhance understanding of the subject highlighting the importance of an adequate clinical information and we are targeting students and practitioners of both dermatology and pathology. We have a stellar cast of eminent international and national faculty to lead and guide this scientific journey. We are confident that this conference will not only bring new insight and knowledge, but also collaborations and friendships.

Kerala, “Gods own country”, is an internationally acclaimed tourist destination. Kochi, the commercial capital of Kerala, also called as the “Queen of Arabian sea” has a rich bounty of culture, heritage and natural beauty.

We were hoping to host you here at Kochi but keeping safety precautions and social distancing, as the need of the hour, we have decided to do this as an online venture. The AAPUD Team cordially welcome you to the virtual conference.
