USCAP Modern Pathology 2020 (Videos)

The “play” on Modern Pathology, USCAP’s high-impact anatomic pathology journal, is timed to highlight transition in Editors-in-Chief with exposition of some highly-cited papers by selected authors whose presentations will be memorialized for exposure on USCAP and Springer Nature websites. The educational content varies from sessions on genomics, informatics and personalized medicine to interactive microscopy and “what’s hot in surgical pathology”. USCAP is transforming not only how we learn but where we learn. This is an exceptional course with a panorama of new information.

Target Audience

Practicing academic and community pathologists, and pathologists-in-training

Learning Objectives

– Upon completion of this educational activity, learners will be able to:
