Anatomic pathology faculty position at the Univ. of Wisconsin
by Bruce Williams May 6, 2022

May 6, 2022

Assistant/Associate/Full Professor of Anatomic Pathology University of Wisconsin-Madison The Department of Pathobiological Sciences, University of Wisconsin-Madison, School of Veterinary Medicine, is seeking candidates for a *clinical*-, *teaching*-, or *tenure-track* anatomic pathology faculty position. Across all positions, there is a 60% expected effort for clinical diagnostic biopsy and necropsy service/clinical teaching, with variable percentage distributions for teaching pre-clinical veterinary students (e.g. 2nd-year pathology courses), collaborative research, and academic service responsibilities. The clinical- and teaching-track positions are open for applicants at all levels (assistant, associate, and full professors), but due to the significant clinical service component (60% effort), the tenure track-position accepts applicants for the associate and full professor levels only. The minimum requirements for the selected candidate include a DVM or equivalent, ACVP or ECVP board certification, and licensure or eligibility for licensure in Wisconsin. Two years of post-residency experience in diagnostic anatomic pathology, research experience and/or a PhD, as well as a demonstrated strong interest and experience in training pathology residents are preferred but not required. The successful candidate will join 4 other board-certified anatomic pathology faculty on the Anatomic Pathology Service in the Pathology Section. The service primarily provides biopsy and necropsy services to the UW Veterinary Care hospital, and is tasked with training 4 anatomic pathology residents, veterinary students on clinical year necropsy rotations, and pre-clinical veterinary students in systemic pathology courses. While the anatomic pathology service primarily provides biopsy and necropsy services for patients of the UWVC hospital, we also receive a significant number of cases from the Milwaukee County Zoo, smaller numbers of cases from the International Crane Foundation, Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources, and external referral clinics, as well as frequently interact and consult with members of The Comparative Ocular Pathology Laboratory of Wisconsin (COPLOW). The ideal candidate will have a demonstrated commitment to clinical teaching and mentorship excellence, with special regard for training anatomic pathology residents.

In addition to resident mentorship, the selected individual will significantly contribute to the professional veterinary student instructional program, with the option to contribute to other courses in the veterinary medical, undergraduate, or graduate student curricula. Experience working with, mentoring, or teaching diverse groups is preferred; and the candidate should have the ability to contribute to fostering and furthering diversity of the campus, curriculum, and discipline. The successful candidate will also be expected to develop an active scholarly program. For an individual on the clinical track, this could include advancing the discipline of anatomic pathology through creation and dissemination of new knowledge and participating in collaborative research by providing expertise to clinical research (case reports, translational research), or basic science animal-based research conducted by faculty. The Department of Pathobiological Sciences is also home to numerous basic, applied, and clinical research programs in a wide array of disciplines, including immunology, parasitology, bacteriology, virology, epidemiology, and public health. Outstanding collaborative research opportunities exist within the Department, other departments in the School of Veterinary Medicine, and throughout the University, including the Wisconsin Institutes of Medical Research (WIMR), the School of Medicine and Public Health, and the Milwaukee County Zoo. The University of Wisconsin–Madison fulfills its public mission by creating and welcoming an inclusive community for people from every background — people who as students, faculty, and staff serve Wisconsin and the world. We recognize diversity as a source of strength, creativity, and innovation for UW-Madison. Our campus culture is one of collaboration and collegiality where the contributions of each person are valued and respected and where excellence in teaching, research, outreach, and diversity are inextricably linked goals, thereby providing an enriching environment for an academic career.

Davis-Thompson Foundation May newsletter
by Francisco A. Uzal May 2, 2022

May 2, 2022

Dear colleagues Welcome to the April issue of the Davis/Thompson Foundation Newsletter, prepared by our fantastic Managing Editors Jeann Leal and Javier Asin. Stephanie Shrader, who was a Managing Editor until last month, had to step down (we hope only temporarily!) from her role of editor, for personal reasons. For many issues, Stephanie has done an outstanding job and we thank her from the bottom of our hearts. Of prime importance in this month's issue, is the announcement by our President, Jey Koehler, about the Big 4 courses of the Foundation: General Pathology, Descriptive Veterinary Pathology, Current Literature and Image Interpretation (CLIIC; formerly the "Gross Course") and POLA. This year, they will be exclusively virtual. Please keep in mind that will be the last year using this modality, as we hope to go back to fully (and only) in person in 2023 and moving forward for the Big 4. We will continue, however, offering several other virtual training opportunities in the future. A last minute announcement is the Latin-American Road Show, an initiative recently created by the Foundation, which will include two full days of lectures in four countries. This year, we were fortunate to engage Dr Alfonso Lopez Mayagoitia (UPEI, Canada), who will travelling in October to Uruguay, Argentina, Paraguay and Colombia to present in person his lectures on Re[1]spiratory Pathology of Domestic Animals. This is an enormous effort by the Foundation and our outstanding speaker, and will bring much needed training opportunities to the continent. The Road Show will be repeated annually in different countries. More information and registration instructions will be available very soon. Last but not least, this issue comes, as always, loaded with an enormous amount of information on training opportunities all over the world and in a number of different languages. Enjoy!

Big news about the "Big 4" courses!
by Jey Koehler April 28, 2022

April 28, 2022

Hello Foundation friends and supporters, this email will be a little long but please stick with it. Nobody needs to be reminded that this has been a weird couple of years. When we decided to offer a hybrid version of the Descriptive course at Auburn University, we knew it was experimental. Unfortunately, 5 weeks out we have zero registrations for in-person, likely for a lot of reasons including that airfares have gone sky high (groan) and availability is more limited. Many folks are still a little hesitant to travel, and we get that. So, we have some good news and some bad news. I'm a "worst first", rip-the-bandaid-off kind of person, so the BAD news is that we've decided to pull the plug on hybrid and go back to virtual only. Whomp-whomp. We say "bad" because the in-person experience is far superior in that it offers trainees a chance to get away from all of their work and home responsibilities and immerse themselves fully in their education, as well as meet instructors and fellow trainees face-to-face and form lifelong connections. Humans are social creatures, and virtual meetings are not great for helping us form real bonds with each other. People tend to delude themselves that they can multi-task as well as they can single-task, but science says this is a lie (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32206165/) and for that reason the educational experience suffers when people try to wedge courses in amongst other things (so tempting with virtual). OK, the GOOD news is that because we won't have the overhead of speaker travel/housing/meals/catering/room rental, we are rolling prices back to last year's! You know we love you, this is YOUR Foundation, and if we don't have those expenses, we certainly aren't going to pass that added cost on to you. If you have already registered, you will be receiving a refund of the difference between what you paid and the reduced rate, and you should already have gotten an email from Bruce. For those who have yet to register, you can use the same link listed on the website but you will see only four options: member "live", non-member "live", member "rebroadcast", and non-member "rebroadcast". Pro tip: ask your residency coordinator if your institution is a member! (most US vet schools are) Remember that rebroadcast is only the lectures, not any of the mock tests or breakout sessions. Next year, provided things don't get weirder and airfares come back to reality, we will be going back to IN-PERSON ONLY for the Descriptive, CLIIC, and POLA courses because we strongly believe in the power and value of that experience. But never fear, we will be putting on in-person Descriptive courses in Europe and multiple places in Latin America (stay tuned for information!). So soak up the pajama-wearing virtual experience while you can, and we look forward to "seeing" you virtually for one more year. Jey Koehler, DVM, PhD, Dipl.

Important update on the "Big 4" courses!
by Jey Koehler April 7, 2022

April 7, 2022

Dear Foundation members and supporters, Those of you who are mentoring the next generation of pathologists in training programs will soon notice that tuition for three of our "big four" courses (Descriptive, CLIIC [formerly the gross course], and POLA) has increased compared to 2020 and 2021. We wanted to make sure that everyone understands exactly why this is the case. Prior to the pandemic, tuition for these courses was at about $650. This helped to defray the significant costs related to speaker travel, lodging, and meals, as well as things like facility rental, coffee and snacks for breaks, and fees associated with applying for RACE credits. In addition, these courses provided the bulk of funding for our mission in areas of the world that have fewer economic resources. When travel shut down world-wide, we quickly pivoted to a virtual platform, and have provided hundreds of hours of free or low-cost virtual CE via Zoom as well as put up many years' worth of outstanding free material on our YouTube channel. We also overhauled our entire website and enhanced free tools like Noah's Arkive and scanned slides, all of which requires greatly increased server space and cloud storage. Needless to say, all of this adds up to a significant commitment of resources from the Foundation. This year, we are moving to a hybrid format for these three courses, because while we firmly believe that the in-person experience is very valuable, we also understand that not everyone will be able to travel, for various reasons. This means that we will have all the expenses of an in-person course, plus all the expenses and challenge of a virtual course. But, hey, you're worth it! It seemed unfair to us to put all these expenses only onto those who are attending in-person, so we decided to spread it out. The result is that even for in-person attendees, tuition is still $100 lower than it was pre-pandemic! A bargain for sure for the many (and believe me, I mean MANY) hours that our dedicated lecturers and course directors put into making these courses so great. In closing, we want to offer a gentle reminder that the Foundation is a registered non-profit organization that is 100% volunteer driven, and 100% of the revenue generated by these courses pays for our mission globally. Thank you for your continued support as we grow, adapt, and work tirelessly to make high quality veterinary and comparative pathology education available for all. Be sure to check the website events calendar frequently and follow us on social media for timely updates on upcoming in-person and virtual courses, day seminars, and lectures, and follow the blog and the newsletter for more in-depth news about Foundation activities. Yours in service, Jey Koehler, President Paco Uzal, CEO Bruce Williams, CFO Jey Koehler, DVM, PhD, Dipl.
