Dr. Jeffrey M. Cohen is an Associate Professor of Dermatology and Biomedical Informatics and Data Science at Yale School of Medicine, where he directs the Psoriasis Treatment Program. He is a board-certified dermatologist whose clinical practice focuses on inflammatory skin diseases, including psoriasis and atopic dermatitis.

Dr. Cohen’s research spans two complementary areas. His translational work uses non-invasive skin sampling to investigate the underlying immunology of inflammatory dermatoses and to expand applications of personalized medicine in dermatology. In parallel, he conducts epidemiologic research to deepen understanding of the interactions between inflammatory skin diseases and other medical conditions.

Dr. Cohen is a graduate of Harvard Medical School and the Yale School of Public Health, and completed his dermatology residency at the NYU Grossman School of Medicine.
