E24: On the brink of a (tele)dermatology revolution

In recognition of Skin Cancer Awareness Month in May, Prof. Peter Soyer shares his latest research findings on how teledermatology can play a pivotal role in preventing and detecting skin cancer and melanoma. Join us as we discuss the current paradigm shift in dermatology thanks to artificial intelligence, mobile teledermoscopy and virtual melanoma checks paving the way for more accessible and effective diagnostics and patient care.
Prof. Soyer is the Inaugural Chair in Dermatology at the University of Queensland, Director of the Princess Alexandra Hospital Dermatology Department, and Project & QLD Lead of Australian Centre of Excellence in Melanoma Imaging and Diagnosis.

E23: Part 2- Sunbed Use and Skin Cancer Risk

In this second part of a two-episode series on health risks associated with sunbed use, Prof. Mariano Suppa rejoins us and shares his research findings with a special focus on European sunbed use. His call for effective educational, behavioural and legislative interventions to reduce the popularity of artificial tanning in Europe is particularly relevant as we kick off Skin Cancer Awareness Month.

E22: Part 1- Sunbed Use and Skin Cancer Risk
