Global Psoriasis Atlas

Directed by Professors Christopher Griffiths and Darren Ashcroft, the project is a collaborative effort between ILDS, University of Manchester and leading psoriasis patient organizations: the International Psoriasis Council (IPC) and International Federation of Psoriasis Associations (IFPA). It is currently in its final phase, with six annual reports, dozens of publications and numerous field studies completed thus far.
