Welcome Message

It gives us immense pleasure and honor to invite you to the upcoming Indian Association of Dermatologists, Venereologists, and Leprologists (IADVL) CUTICON-TN2026, to be held in the vibrant city of Salem, one of Tamil Nadu’s prominent cities, nestled amidst a picturesque range of hills and endowed with rich natural and mineral resources. Often regarded as a geologist’s treasure trove, Salem also holds a distinguished place in history as the birthplace of the renowned Tamil poetess Avvaiyar, reflecting its deep-rooted cultural and literary heritage.

Salem has long been recognized as a significant educational and academic hub in the state. In this spirit, the conference aims to bring together dermatologists, academicians, and postgraduate students to engage in meaningful scientific exchange, share focused, evidence-based, and practical knowledge, and deliberate on recent advances in dermatology, venereology, and leprology.

Welcome to CUTICON-TN26

Postgraduate students are invited to submit abstracts for free papers and posters, including entries for award sessions, in accordance with the conference guidelines. Practicing dermatologists are also welcome to submit free papers. In addition to the scientific sessions, a quiz competition is planned for postgraduate students, aimed at encouraging academic excellence and active participation. Exciting academic activities and interactive sessions are being organized throughout the conference, offering a stimulating and rewarding learning experience.

We look forward to your enthusiastic participation and to welcoming you to an academically enriching and memorable CUTICON experience in Salem.

Warm regards,
