The Fondation René Touraine works through a Scientific Board integrating 24 high-profile European dermatologists. This Board has 3 Committees, steering the Fondation René Touraine’s main 3 networking activities: Together Against Genodermatoses, Psoriasis International Network and e-Dermatology Portal. This Board is renewed by 1/3 of its members every 3 years and one cannot apply for the same position twice in a row. The Scientific Board decides to which candidates the Fondation René Touraine’s fellowships are awarded, as well as the organisation of the other scientific activities of Fondation René Touraine.
