Welcome Message from the Organizing Committee


Dear Delegates,

Dermatology today stands on deep and resilient roots. Our therapeutic success - whether achieved through a carefully chosen drug, a precise surgical intervention or an advanced laser - is built on decades of foundational knowledge, clinical wisdom and scientific rigor.

The ROOTS IX conference on Therapeutics in Dermatology is a celebration of this journey, where time-tested principles meet evolving technologies, and where evidence guides innovation. As we explore drugs, procedures, and laser applications, we reaffirm our commitment to safe, ethical, and patient-centric care, rooted in the past, relevant to the present, and ready for the future. We look forward to welcoming you in Pune for an inspiring and insightful experience.


Warm regards,
Organizing Committee
