Voices in Pathology: Asian-Americans - Friday, 28 May 2021
by Bruce Williams April 23, 2021

April 23, 2021

Our free Friday Seminar on the 28th of May is the third in our seminars to highlight the diverse experiences of inspiring minority pathologists - this time focusing on our Asian American colleagues. I can't imagine our field without the amazing and continuing contributions of our Asian American (or simply Asian) colleagues - and their stories are just as amazing. Please take two hours and participate in this seminar - it's a great opportunity to really listen, to learn, and just maybe we can all examine our own conscious and unconscious biases as we relate to those around us. All attendees will receive 2 hours of free RACE credits and a certificate of attendance.

Digital Pathology II - Tuesday April 20 - NO REBROADCAST!
by Bruce Williams April 16, 2021

April 16, 2021

Well, isn't this a pickle? The people who need this the most are likely the ones who likely can't put a reminder for it in their calendar! :D Nonetheless, last year, the first Digital Pathology Day-seminar was a (not very much) surprise hit, so we have brought the speakers back for a second go-round. Unfortunately, as we dig a bit deeper into some of the pharma and "pending publication" topics, we have to forego rebroadcasting on this one, so DON'T MISS OUT! Now here are the not-so-witty learning objectives ( I don't write 'em, I just cut-and-paste 'em): During this seminar, participants will learn: - The key principles in building a nonclinical quality system for Deep Learning AI - An example quality control workflow for Deep Learning AI - An example qualification methodology for Deep Learning AI - Gain understanding of the deep learning methods used in pathology - Learn about the different performance metrics used to evaluate deep learning tissue image analysis solutions Register now! (NO rebroadcast - so don't ping me later asking to see the super-secret recording that we didn't even make...)

The Foundation has a new symbol (and an animation, too!)
by Bruce Williams April 8, 2021

April 8, 2021

As the Foundation has entered the digital age, we have entered with the bold new logo as well! The Foundation’s symbol was created by Samuel Wesley Thompson (in the mid 1970s). The original design was actually a cloth path - maroon in colr, this embroidered patch came with the V device, the snake, the shield, and the bay leaves. The maroon color, the snake and the V were inspired by the emblem of the U.S. Army Veterinary Corps, where Dr. Charlie Louis Davis and Dr. Samuel Wesley Thompson met and spent their careers at. The bay leaves are traditional emblems of healing and the shield represents protection of animal and human health. In the 1990s, a heraldic artist was commissioned to adapt the path to make a crest for the Foundation. The crest went through a few stages of evolution, over the years. First, it received a ribbon on top with the name of the Foundation at that time, the “C.L. Davis DVM Foundation” and a ribbon at the bottom with the Foundation's mission “Advancement of Veterinary Pathology”. In 2015 after the passing of Dr. Thompson and the subsequent change to the Foundation’s name, the top ribbon was changed to “Davis-Thompson DVM Foundation”. But as we advance into the digital age, it is about time for a revamping of our beloved emblem. We hope you like it, and recognize it to be the symbol of excellence wherever you find it. There is also an animated version (I have attached in .MP4 form) which you will now see at the beginning of all of our digital products. Turn on your volume to view it (it's great!).
