International Transplant Skin Cancer Collaborative

ITSCC members Dr. Melodi Whitley and Dr.
Jackson-Cullison hosted an incredible transplant dermatology session at the Society for Investigative Dermatology Annual Meeting this year in Chicago.
Proud of our ITSCC stars for supporting collaboration, education, and research dedicated to improving care for immunosuppressed and transplant patients!

Big congratulations to Drs. Sarah Arron and Lee Wheless on being featured in the JAMA Dermatology 2025 Year in Review! 🎉

Dr. Wheless’ study on nicotinamide for skin cancer chemoprevention was recognized as the most downloaded article of the year, while Dr. Arron’s accompanying editorial was named the second highest Altmetric-scoring article, highlighting its major impact across media and public discussion. Together, their work helped drive national conversation around skin cancer prevention and chemoprevention strategies. 👏

ITSCC is proud to celebrate research that advances evidence-based care for immunosuppressed and high-risk skin cancer patients. ☀️🧴
