In the early 1970's, scientists interested in dermatological research in the San Francisco Bay Area enjoyed personal friendships in addition to exchange of scientific knowledge.  In order to share the activities with other students of Skin Research, we sought the possibility of establishing a meeting forum. The idea became a reality when Dr. Ken Burdick suggested for us to utilize the Syntex Compound in Palo Alto.

The first meeting was held in 1973 and the presentation of science improved, and friendships became closer.

We are sincerely grateful to those who had taken leadership roles.  At the same time, we applause the active PSRC members receiving honors and special recognitions from other societies.
