In this episode of Cutaneous Miscellaneous, host Nicholas Brownstone, MD, welcomes Leo Wang, MD, assistant professor of dermatology and bioengineering at the University of Pennsylvania, for a conversation on dermatology research and how clinical questions can drive innovation in the lab.
They begin with a boards review on topical drug delivery, with a practical breakdown of common vehicles and how differences in water content influence occlusion, tolerability, and clinical use. Dr Wang also reviews stratum corneum biology and how it impacts drug delivery.
The discussion then turns to life as a dermatology researcher. Dr Wang shares why he chose a research-heavy career, how he built his lab, and how clinical practice informs his research priorities. He and Dr Brownstone also discuss funding realities, time management, and how residents can explore research paths during and after training.
Tune into the episode for boards pearls, insight into research-focused careers in dermatology, and guidance for residents interested in shaping the future of skin therapeutics.
