Please join us Tuesday, September 7 from 9:00am-4:00pm US Central time for the first in this series of two very important virtual day seminars focused on standardization in tumor pathology reporting. This seminar is co-sponsored by the ACVP and the Veterinary Cancer Guidelines and Protocols group, and is sure to generate some great conversation. Why do we need to standardize? How can we standardize? How can we all be a part of the conversation? What is the role of digital pathology and image analysis in standardization? Join a phenomenal panel of pathologists, clinicians, and computer scientists who are at the cutting edge of standardization. This day seminar will be recorded and available on the Foundation's YouTube channel (but you don't want to miss the live discussion!). It will be approved for 6 hours of RACE and 4 MOC credits.
