Background and Objectives: The knowledge of epidemiology has this very valuable ability that it can review and revise its methods and principles based on the problems under investigation. Therefore, this knowledge is not only suitable for all problems related to the health of the society that have a long history, but it can also study new problems related to health if needed by making a necessary change in its methods. Accordingly, different branches of epidemiology have been formed and evolved over time. For example, branches such as epidemiology of infectious diseases, epidemiology of chronic diseases, social epidemiology, occupational epidemiology, and environmental epidemiology constitute only a small number of existing branches of epidemiology knowledge. The purpose of writing this article is to familiarize Persian speaking readers with one of the relatively new branches of epidemiology, namely dermatoepidemiology.
