Sumario:PURPOSE: Pediatric dermatological training lacks in skin of color education and exposure, contributing to health inequities. METHODS: We collected data from a survey assessing comfort of diagnosis on SOC before and after the intervention of a presentation. RESULTS: This study demonstrates an increase in comfort of diagnosis after lecture intervention. CONCLUSION: This highlights the need for further education to allow for increased confidence and knowledge with diagnosis, as well as mastery. It also demonstrates the importance of exposure to SOC dermatology in medical and resident training to improve health equity.
