The Australasian Dermatopathology Society (ADS) is a professional collective of Specialist Dermatologists and Pathologists who are dedicated to improving our understanding of the pathology of cutaneous disease. The majority of our members are based in Australia and New Zealand, but we also have members based in North America, Europe and Asia. We welcome applications from appropriately qualified colleagues and trainees from around the world to join us.
