Nneamaka Ezekwe, MD, resident physician in dermatology, is one of the principal photographers who contributed images to “The Full Spectrum of Dermatology: A Diverse and Inclusive Atlas,” a book that compiles 650+ images of more than 85 commonly seen dermatological conditions in an array of skin tones. The book addresses shortcomings in previous atlases like the ones that Nneamaka encountered as a medical student, which failed to show conditions for people with darker skin tones. Contributions like Nneamaka’s allow us to see one another more clearly, illustrating why inclusive approaches to care, research, and teaching are so important.
