New Year - New Appearance!
The time has come to change the look of Forum, which has remained the same for eleven years - as long as I
have had the pleasure of being the editor. I hope you will appreciate the new design and colours.
In this issue we present a research report from the University of Örebro about the development of
this relatively new university. As mentioned previously, we invite you to send in reports about the
research in your universities for publication in Forum. From the same author, we also have another
interesting report on attitudes to risky behaviour among young adults (p. 8).
On page 6 you can learn a little more about eruptive sebaceous hyperplasia, and on page 16 Petter
Gjersvik gives his views on 4 years’ experience on the Euromelanoma campaign. This issue also contains
case reports, dissertations and quizzes, as well as continuing medical education (CME).
I would also like to remind you about the UEMS-EBDV Board Examination 2019. This will take place in Frankfurt
on 2-3 August, 2019. Information regarding this exam can be seen on p. 32.
Please also make a note in your calendar regarding the 100-year celebration of ActaDV which will take place in Stockholm on 15 th of
May 2020! See preliminary program on p. 36.
The Nordic Congress in Dermatology and Venereology is to be held soon in Göteborg. The President, John Paoli, and his team have
created such an excellent programme that they have exceeded all expectations of the number of participants; the Congress is already
fully booked.
I look forward seeing many of you in Göteborg in May.
Please enjoy reading this issue!
