WELCOME

Dear Colleagues,

It is a great pleasure for me to Chair the Organising Committee of the 107th Annual Meeting of the British Association of Dermatologists.

We are delighted to be returning to Liverpool, 4 years after our last 2023 meeting. The Liverpool Central venue offers the space, facilities and central location to ensure we can deliver another successful annual meeting. Due to recent increase demand, the exhibition Hall will now incorporate the Arena, so please make sure you visit both areas of the exhibition.

I would like to thank Dr Carolyn Charman and the organising committee for a superb Manchester meeting in 2026. Please remember that registration for the 106th Annual Meeting and the virtual content is still available until the end of 2026.

The BAD Officers and the BAD Conference & Events committee have taken on board the positive feedback from the recent BAD Annual Meetings and would like to offer all physical attendees the opportunity to access all the conference content, after the meeting. There will also be a virtual registration option (to view post-live content after the in-person meeting) for those attendees unable to join us live in Liverpool. We do of course hope that as many of you as possible can attend in person in June 2027 and we look forward to seeing you all.

Abstract submission will open in October and the key deadlines are. January 11th (main meeting), February 8th (Special Interest Groups) and May 17th (Late Breakers).

Registration will open in February 2027 and sign up early to take advantage of early-bird rates. We hope delegates will join us for the BADfest networking social event on Tuesday 29 June, 2027 theme to be announced soon!

Please check this website to keep up to date with the keynote lecturer announcements, programme details and sponsoring companies. We hope that you will all enjoy the excellent programme we have planned and benefit from this hybrid approach as our Annual Meeting evolves for our ever-changing times.

Further details will be announced on this website and in regular bulletins in due course. Along with the whole BAD team, I look forward to offering a warm in-person welcome to all UK and International delegates.

I hope you enjoy the meeting!

Professor John Lear

Research Vice President (2025-2027)
