Cutaneous infections encompass a broad spectrum of bacterial, viral, fungal, and parasitic skin diseases that continue to pose significant public health and clinical challenges worldwide. The emergence of antimicrobial resistance, evolving infectious pathogens, global travel, climate change, and immunocompromised populations have increased the complexity of diagnosing and managing infectious skin disorders. Advances in molecular diagnostics, microbiome research, antimicrobial therapies, vaccines, and infection prevention strategies are transforming dermatological practice. This session welcomes dermatologists, infectious disease specialists, microbiologists, researchers, clinicians, and healthcare professionals to present the latest research, clinical advances, innovative therapies, and evidence-based approaches for the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of cutaneous infections.
