NSU Medical Resident Receives Daniel Koprince National Award in Dermatology
Julian Moore, D.O.
Julian Moore, D.O., a third-year medical resident at NSU’s College of Osteopathic Medicine – Broward General Medical Center’s Dermatology Residency Training Program, was recently awarded the prestigious Daniel Koprince National Award in Dermatology. He received the accolade for his clinical case presentation of Bullous Sweets Syndrome at the annual American Osteopathic College of Dermatology Mid-Year Meeting and Scientific Seminar held in Sedona, Arizona on Apr. 15.
According to Broward General Medical Center, the Koprince Award, touted as the highest honor for a resident in dermatology, is a highly coveted accolade reserved for one outstanding resident case presentation per year. After careful review by the evaluation committee, Moore was selected from more than 100 applicants as the recipient of the award.
The case presentation came as a result of a dermatology consult from Broward General Medical Center. Sweets Syndrome, also known as acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis, is an uncommon condition, and can be an indication of more serious underlying conditions, including an association with hematologic malignancy. Moore quickly realized the gravity of the consult and, along with his colleagues, effectively diagnosed and treated the patient.
“Dr. Moore’s achievement is testament to the quality of our residency training program, highlighting the rich clinical experience that benefit our dermatology residents throughout their years of training at Nova Southeastern University and Broward General Medical Center,” said Stanley Skopit, D.O., Director of the Dermatology Residency Training Program at NSU College of Osteopathic Medicine in conjunction with Broward General Medical Center. “We are proud that Dr. Moore represents our residency training program and hospital.”
