Yesterday, we hosted our first annual @AIMatMelanoma 5K and raised over $11,500! It was amazing to connect with melanoma survivors and create a meaningful walk in their honor. Here’s to more awareness, support, and steps toward a cure! #endmelanoma#dermtwitter
📚 Preclinical medical students performed similarly in diagnostic dermatological conditions in varying skin types, successfully evaluating conditions in White versus skin of color patients. #dermtwitter

Super excited to see this work being recognized. Extremely important topic and multiple avenues to address nationally!
We have a wonderful team at UACOM- Phoenix working hard to increase our skin of color resources. @KTHastingsMDPhD@taraghal
The European Medical Journal recently highlighted research from a #uazmedphx team that found there is a disproportionately low representation of skin color other than white (15%) in medical school dermatological curricula and board study resources.

Had a great time learning from leading dermatologists and presenting my case report on pyoderma gangrenosum at the @Cal_Derm symposium a few weekends ago!☀️ #dermtwitter
Had a fantastic weekend presenting a case report at the @Cal_Derm Fall Symposium in San Diego, CA on Pembrolizumab induced T1DM in a patient with metastatic melanoma! Also enjoyed running into some old UC Berkeley friends turned future colleagues 😌
From my morning walk to @PhxChildrens ! Been having the best time this week with the cardiology team. I’ve seen every congenital ❤️ defect in the book 😎
@ebtapper there was *1* uworld question on amanita MOA when I was studying for step 1- cool to see how you go about this clinically! thanks for sharing 😄
Nakita was a classmate of mine, and an inspiration to all those who knew and worked with her.
She deserved better, and was working to improve the lives of all residents and trainees.
RIP Dr. Nakita Mortimer.
