Melanoma conferences and courses

Where to find current meetings

Use official ESMO, EADO and AIOM calendars for dates, location, programmes and registration. Meeting format or availability can change, so check the organiser’s page before booking travel or accommodation. A poster reposted elsewhere is insufficient.

Distinguish professional scientific conferences, practical dermoscopy training and public patient events. Italian ECM credits depend on the individual event’s accreditation and eligible professions, not simply the organiser’s reputation. Check price, language, prerequisites and access to recordings or materials.

For patients, a conference finding may be interesting but preliminary. Ask whether a complete paper exists and whether recommendations or authorisations have changed. Attendance at a meeting does not provide access to a clinical trial.

2015 archive: past events

The previous collection listed 2015 events: World Congress of Dermoscopy in Vienna, European Post-Chicago Meeting in Munich, ESPCR in Edinburgh, EADO in Marseille, Melanoma Summit in Auckland, Society for Melanoma Research in San Francisco and ESMO Asia in Singapore. They are past events retained to document the page’s history, not registration opportunities.

Old event-specific websites may no longer exist or may have changed content. Ask the relevant society for historical proceedings and use its current calendar for new meetings. This avoids a static list becoming misleading as soon as dates pass.
