Dr. Naveed Sami is an Associate Professor of Dermatology at the University of Alabama in Birmingham. He has had a keen interest in the pathogenesis and treatment of complex medical dermatology and specifically, autoimmune blistering diseases. He has been a pioneer in attempting novel treatments for patients with recalcitrant diseases. Dr. Sami has published extensively in the peer reviewed literature focusing on the management of these diseases. He has also delivered lectures/presentations at major conferences including the American Academy of Dermatology and European Academy of Dermatology Venerology . He has found his colleagues looking for practical guidelines when they are confronted with patients of the various autoimmune bullous diseases and their severity. Hence, this book will attempt to fill the void which currently exists and is sought after by both dermatologists and nondermatologists.
