Asian Dermatological Association (ADA) was founded in 1986 to promote and encourage communications among dermatologists in Asian countries.  Over 30 Asian countries have joined us making ADA a real representative of Asian dermatological world. We have been holding Asian Dermatological Congress (ADC)　every few years touching down various Asian cities such as Hong Kong, Singapore, Dubai, Beijing, Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur and Seoul.  The next 10th ADC will be held in Mumbai, for the first time in India, on 13-16, October, 2016 sponsored by Indian Association of Dermatologists, Venereologists and Leprologists（IADVL. As Chairman of ADA, I would like to take this opportunity to extend my enthusiastic welcome to our memorable 10th ADC in Mumbai next year.

In this ADC, you can find various currently important issues in Asian skin and enjoy latest clues for clinical dermatology. Also you can learn clinical pearls and what’s new in cosmetic and authentic dermatology.  This is why I really would like to invite you from all over the world to join the 10th ADC at the beautiful old city of Mumbai in the best season of the year.  Of course, I will be there and we will meet the challenges of changing paradigm as well as future options for practical clinical dermatology.  I hope everybody will come to the 10th ADC in Mumbai learning an Indian flavored hot dermatology and deepen our fruitful friendships among Asian as well as global dermatologists.

See you in Mumbai in 2016!
