Job opening, anatomic pathologist Alabama state diagnostic lab (Auburn, AL)
by Jey Koehler Aug. 29, 2023

Aug. 29, 2023

There is an opening for an ACVP-boarded or board-eligible anatomic pathologist at the Thompson-Bishop-Sparks state diagnostic laboratory in Auburn, Alabama. Please find the details in the attached document. This is a wonderful, modern facility with a bunch of great people and an especially outstanding director. If you are interested in 100% diagnostic pathology, this is a fantastic place to work with a varied but not overwhelming caseload. There are opportunities for resident teaching at rounds and even the occasional lecture to vet students if desired, but the position is not a faculty position. I can personally attest that Auburn is a great place to live: a lovely, tree-filled, vibrant, medium-sized university town close to many rivers and hiking and biking trails. It’s about 4 hours to the gorgeous sugar-white beaches of the Florida panhandle and about 4 to the mountains of north Georgia and the Smokies! Public schools here are excellent, and the cost of living is reasonable. There is a performing arts center and a museum, and Atlanta is 1.5 hours away for additional cultural and entertainment opportunities (and the busiest international airport in the US, so travel to anywhere in the world is easy-peasy). The presence of the university creates a more cosmopolitan and international community than is present in some other areas of the state, so stay open-minded when you hear “Alabama”! 😊 Jey W.

From the JPC - upcoming changes in VSPO
by Bruce Williams Aug. 28, 2023

Aug. 28, 2023

From the JPC: We wish to make you aware of an upcoming change to VSPO. As a result of continued evolution of programming languages and the increased familiarity with whole slide images (WSI) by our customer base, effective 31 August 2023 the JPC will discontinue the “hotbox/diagnostic series” feature on the VSPO site. The “hotbox” feature was programmed in HTML v.3.2 (a full decade before the advent of WSI), but is no longer compatible with current programming languages. Disabling this feature means that viewing VSPO entities as unknowns is also discontinued; however, we are exploring means to restore this particular feature with WSI. Whole slide images continue to be available for each entity and can be accessed by using the username “guest” with no password. -- Bruce Williams Chief Financial Officer Davis-Thompson Foundation 301 467-4024 bruce.williams(a)davisthompsonfoundation.org www.davisthompsonfoundation.org
