by Francisco A. Uzal Feb. 2, 2021

Feb. 2, 2021

Dear all Welcome to the February issue of the Davis-Thompson Foundation newsletter, with the compliments of our great managing editors: Stephanie Shrader and Javier Asin. In this issue of the newsletter, you will find a heartfelt welcome to our incoming President, Dr Jey Koehler. Jey will take over her role as president officially on March 2001, but she is, and has been for a while, already hard at work helping with countless activities in the Foundation. While COVID vaccination is starting everywhere, and we hope that we can go back to offering at least some of our teaching activities on a face-to-face mode, we are still planning and offering our regular virtual activities. In this issue, you will also find the Foundation's new calendar for the first semester of 2021 (and a bit more). As always, our courses and seminars are reaching thousands of colleagues around the world, and they come at no cost or low cost and with great CE credits. Our General Pathology Review Course is been given this week to an unusually large audience by an outstanding group of organizers and faculty. If you missed it this week, you can always watch, for a reduced fee, the rebroadcasted version for several weeks to come. Looking forward to seeing you at one or more of our upcoming seminars.

There MUST be a great seminar for you in the next 3 weeks!
by Bruce Williams Jan. 17, 2021

Jan. 17, 2021

The next 3 weeks will have three very different and very popular all day (or two-day) seminars all with RACE-accredited CE. On 26 January, we have a fantastic wide-ranging seminar on Toxicologic Pathology which will cover everything from basic principles of toxicology, environmental toxicologic pathology, techniques beeyond morphology used in pharma, and an introduction to the food safety and drug development process. There is something here for everyone thinking about, starting in, or with years of experience in toxicologic pathology. Register at: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_h6NYMva1TvCQH7WM6MCMyQ Cost: $50 USD 8 Hours RACE-Accredited CE On Feb 1-6, we have our annual General Pathology Review Course . Attendees will have TWO options for 2021 - attend the live broadcasts, interact with the instructors, and participate in the panel discussions, or view lecture rebroadcasts for a limited period following the course. Both options come with course materials and RACE credits. Interactive participation in the live broadcast is strongly recommended for those taking the ACVP phase 1 certification examination, and seating is limited to 100 to ensure a beneficial experience, while the rebroadcasted lectures will be sufficient for those who are looking for general knowledge, a refresher, or for whom the time zone (Pacific Standard Time) poes an insurmountable problem. Register at: https://davisthompsonfoundation.regfox.com/genpath2021 <https://davisthompsonfoundation.regfox.com/genpath2021?fbclid=IwAR0WP_R449h…> Live version: $250 Rebroadcast: $100 And finally on 5-6 February, the rescheduled "2020 Northeast Veterinary Pathology Conference" will be happening VIRTUALLY! (We have to get it done, because the 2021 is in the planning stages!) A very informal one and a half-day session, we have Dr., Brian Murphy as our keynote speaker on Oral and Maxillofacial pathology and then a slate of 24 brief case presentations focusing on similar issues (since we have the expert in the house!) It's a GREAT way to see a range of interesting cases, some classic and some unique! Registration: https://davisthompsonfoundation.regfox.com/2020nevpc <https://davisthompsonfoundation.regfox.com/2020nevpc?fbclid=IwAR3q8rjCtt8fr…> TIMES: Friday, February 5, 9am to 5pm EST Saturday, February 6, 9:30am to 11:00am EST Cost: $50 USD 16 Hours RACE-Accredited CE
