We highlight the contribution of notable Jewish women in American dermatology. Although not intended to be a thorough listing, we selected nine representatives as examples of early pioneer women in American dermatology and research and those who were political leaders, authors and journal editors, and teachers and role models. All struggled to overcome professional barriers to women in medicine; many experienced antisemitism, especially those who were forced to flee Nazi Germany. Despite persecution and upending their lives, they rebuilt their careers and made outstanding contributions to the field of dermatology.

Mosaic loss of Y (mLOY) is the most common somatic chromosomal alteration detected in human blood. The presence of mLOY is associated with altered blood cell counts and increased risk of Alzheimer disease, solid tumors, and other age-related diseases. We sought to gain a better understanding of genetic drivers and associated phenotypes of mLOY through analyses of whole-genome sequencing (WGS) of a large set of genetically diverse males from the Trans-Omics for Precision Medicine (TOPMed) program.
