  Dermatology is a specialized field of medicine that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of skin diseases, conditions, and cosmetic issues. The skin, being the largest organ in the human body, plays a crucial role in protecting internal organs from external threats such as pathogens, chemicals, and UV radiation. It also regulates temperature, facilitates sensation, and contributes to overall health. Given its numerous functions, the importance of dermatology in healthcare cannot be overstated. 
  As a visible organ, the skin often reflects a person’s internal health. Changes in skin appearance or texture can indicate underlying medical conditions, such as infections, hormonal imbalances, or autoimmune diseases. Therefore, dermatology is not only concerned with treating skin-specific ailments but also with identifying and addressing broader health issues. For instance, many systemic diseases, such as lupus or diabetes, manifest with skin symptoms, which dermatologists are trained to recognize and interpret. 
  In addition to its diagnostic capabilities, dermatology is vital for managing a wide range of common skin conditions, some of which can significantly impact a person's quality of life. Disorders such as acne, eczema, and psoriasis are prevalent, with millions of people worldwide affected by these conditions. These disorders often have both physical and psychological effects, as they can cause discomfort, scarring, and social stigma. Dermatologists are skilled in offering both medical treatments and cosmetic procedures to help individuals manage these conditions effectively.

  Internal and external pressure continues to mount for college professionals to provide evidence of successful activities, programs, and services, which means that, going forward, nearly every campus professional will need to approach their work with a data-informed perspective. But you find yourself thinking "I am not a data person." Yes, you are. Or can be with the help of Amelia Parnell. You Are a Data Person provides context for the levels at which you are currently comfortable using data, helps you identify both the areas where you should strengthen your knowledge and where you can use this knowledge in your particular university role. For example, the rising cost to deliver high-quality programs and services to students has pushed many institutions to reallocate resources to find efficiencies. In addition to programs, services, and pedagogy, professionals are constantly monitoring the rates at which students are entering, remaining enrolled in, and leaving the institution, as those movements impact the institution's financial position. From teaching professors to student affairs personnel and beyond, Parnell offers tangible examples of how professionals can make data contributions at their current and future knowledge level, and will even inspire listeners to take the initiative to engage in data projects.
