SHARING DERMATOPATHOLOGY KNOWLEGE AND EXPERIENCE: LIVE AND ON DEMAND!

A message from the Founder, Dr. Artur Zembowicz, M.D, Ph.D. (Professor of Pathology, Tufts Medical School, Founder-Dermatopathology Consultations LLC, Senior Consultant-Lahey Clinic):

"I created Dermpedia out of personal necessity: to stay at the cutting edge of a rapidly evolving field.

As someone who runs a dedicated second-opinion practice (DermatopathologyConsultations.com), I rely on high-yield, advanced education. But I found traditional society meetings lacking. They are often too basic, overly focused on the destination rather than the curriculum, and plagued by rushed, 10 to 15-minute presentations that make it impossible to explore complex topics in the depth they actually require. On the other end of the spectrum, free content on YouTube lacks diagnostic rigor and is bogged down by ads.

I needed something better. So, I built it.

Dermpedia is different. It is the only platform that combines the convenience of a 'Netflix-style' video streaming atlas with the rigor of in-depth Live CME Courses and interactive workshops. We offer what no textbook or rushed conference podium can: direct, unfiltered access to the minds of master diagnosticians. Learn from their experience, see what they see, understand their thought process, and sharpen your own diagnostic skills.

Through this platform, I have the privilege of learning directly from the firsthand experience of true leaders in our field. Just as importantly, it allows me to share my own diagnostic insights—paying forward the invaluable teaching, guidance, and wisdom I received from my own mentors, friends, and colleagues.

But my vision for Dermpedia goes far beyond my own practice. While this began as a personal educational endeavor, my ultimate goal is for Dermpedia to outgrow me. I want to evolve this platform into a modern vision of a professional society—a dynamic, digital-first community where passionate dermatopathologists collaborate, teach, and push the specialty forward together, independent of any single founder.
