The Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology (JAAD), the official scientific publication of the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD), aims to satisfy the educational needs of the dermatology community. As the specialty's leading journal, JAAD features original, peer-reviewed articles emphasizing:

clinical, investigative, and population-based studies

healthcare delivery and quality of care research

high quality, cost effective, and innovative treatments

new diagnostic techniques, and

other topics related to the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of disorders of the skin, hair, and nails

Each issue includes continuing medical education articles designed to fill practice and knowledge gaps in the delivery of dermatologic care. JAAD is also the official venue for practice guidelines established by the AAD. Our ultimate goal is to provide readers with content that advances the breadth and depth of dermatologic expertise by disseminating evidence-based recommendations to improve patient outcomes. The Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology is ranked 1st out of 70 in the Dermatology category in the 2022 Journal Citation Reports®, published by Clarivate Analytics, and has an Impact Factor of 13.8. The Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology is also recommended for purchase in the Brandon-Hill study, Selected List of Books and Journals for the Small Medical Library. JAAD has two open access companion titles:
