The incidence of skin cancer has risen sharply in recent years, particularly in Switzerland.
What are the reasons for this? How can we protect ourselves? What preventive measures are important? What treatment options are available?

We will discuss the function of the skin as a barrier organ to the outside world, the mechanisms of skin ageing, the different types of skin cancer, their possible triggers and the different forms of therapy.
