HISTORY
The European Association of Dermato-Oncology was founded in 1998 in Kaysersberg/Alsace on the initiative of Hubert Pehamberger from Vienna (first president), Jean Jacques Grob from Marseille (second president) and Claus Garbe from Tübingen (current president) as well as other participants from Austria, France and Germany. EADO has almost 1,600 members from 87 European countries. The board consists of 30 representatives from 18 different countries.
Over the years we have made great progress in standardizing the therapy of skin tumors through European guidelines and have improved the understanding of skin tumors with our research projects and studies. Our focus is on improving early detection, therapy and follow-up of our patients.
