NZSCD 2026 Annual Conference

The Annual NZSCD conference provides members with a valuable opportunity to join their peers for a day of learning, networking and professional support, in order to facilitate best practice skin cancer care through strong engagement with patients and Health Insurers.

Whilst the schedule for the day has not yet been finalised, we are gathering a range of Skin Cancer Experts from across the country to present on topics such as:

• From pattern recognition to pathway design: how AI is reshaping skin cancer diagnosis

• Plastic surgery tips and tricks in skin cancer surgery

• Melanoma or unusual skin malignancies

• Skinscape 360: Total Body Photography and AI

The 2026 conference will be a full day event, with presentation scheduled between 9.00am and 5.00pm.

Included in your registration cost are: welcome refreshments, morning and afternoon tea, and a lunch in the hotel restaurant.

We are also looking for an indication of interest in an informal post-conference dinner, either at the Rydges or at an alternate venue. This would be at an additional cost to members. Partners are welcome, please give an indication of your interest for this when registering for the conference in the checkout questions.
