Dr. George Migaki, 1917-2021
by Bruce Williams Sept. 11, 2021

Sept. 11, 2021

It is with great regret that I announce the passing of Dr. George Migaki, formerly of the Registry of Veterinary Pathology at the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology. George was a pioneer in the comparative pathology of zoo and wildlife animals (and one of the first veterinary pathologists to take an interest in the pathology of marine mammals) as well as laboratory animals. He was the author of innumerable papers of animal models in conjunction with the Journal of Comparative Pathology and many other journals. A cursory search of "Migaki G veterinary" in either Pubmed or Google will quickly document his massive contributions to our field. I met George as a first-day resident and we struck up an fast friendship based on our combined intense curiosity for all things pathological.Every day, for the first two weeks of my residency, George would invite me into his office to show my a slide and ask me for my diagnosis. I would give my best shot (which wasn't much) and he would clap and exclaim with glee, "It's just autolysis!" I fell for that every day for two weeks until I myself one day said "Autolysis?" Then the real teaching began, and he was an amazing instructor, mentor, and colleague. George was a veteran of WWII - an American soldier of Japanese descent (which requires no more explanation) - and we would talk every year on Veteran's Day. He was incredibly kind, a true gentleman, and one of the unsung heroes (which was fine with him) of our field. Godspeed my friend....

This week's Free Foundation Seminars
by Bruce Williams Sept. 6, 2021

Sept. 6, 2021

It's a GREAT week for free seminars from the Davis-Thompson Foundation! Tomorrow, 7 September is the first of our two-part FREE all-day seminar on Tumor Standardization, co-sponsored with the Veterinary Cancer Guidelines and Protocols Group and the American College of Pathologists. In the first day seminar, the speakers will address important issues in tumor diagnostics and grading including, the importance of standardization, proper interpretation of mitotic figures and calculating mitotic counts, evaluating necrosis in tumors, breaking down the melanoma protocol, and computational aspects of tumor grading. All participants will receive a certificate for 8 hours of RACE CE. Before the seminar starts, try your hand at evaluating mitotic figures (there's more to it than meets the eye) at: https://davisthompsonfoundation.org/mitotic-figure-quiz/ To register for this seminar, please visit: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_ikL7WMYoR363sGpse-MkKQ And on Friday, 10 September, spent two hours at our newest diversity seminar: Voices in Pathology: LGBTQ+. This seminar features another esteemed panel of colleagues who are generously willing to share their career and life experiences, advice, wisdom, passions, and challenges as members of the LGBTQ+ community in our profession. Here at the Foundation we are full of pride in our colleagues, and not just in June when it’s trendy to slap a rainbow on everything (although more rainbows totes makes the world a better place). So whether you are a member of the LGBTQ+ community yourself, straight, ace, questioning, whatever, it’s a big tent and all are welcome to come listen and learn from our great panelists: they’re here, they’re queer, and most importantly they rock the path-o-sphere! LGBT? LGBTQ? LGBTQ+? LGBTQIA+? Feel like you need a little primer on terminology in advance of the seminar?

by Jey Koehler Aug. 13, 2021

Aug. 13, 2021

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. Because of the highly important nature of these two seminars, the Foundation is making them available free of charge, but registration is required.

The Foundation has a new "home"!
by Jey Koehler July 20, 2021

July 20, 2021

Dear Davis-Thompson Foundation members and supporters: As most or all of you know, the Foundation realizes its mission with a team of dedicated and talented volunteers who help us do what we do while also balancing an already-busy life filled with demanding career, family, and outside interests. Volunteers are the lifeblood of the organization, but every once in a while a job comes along that is so big, complex, time-consuming, and outside our skill set that we need to bring in professionals. Today we are announcing the launch of our completely redesigned website, which was brought to life by the talented dream team of punk rock marketers at Malcontent Marketing (www.malcontent.agency<http://www.malcontent.agency>) along with significant efforts from our executive board, our marketing and webinar committee chairs, and our IT director. The new website will serve as our central organizing point for upcoming events and registration, news and information, image banks, diagnostic exercises, membership, and more. Love your social media? Don't worry, we will still have a presence there! Love the pdf newsletter? Don't worry, we'll still be making one! So go to www.davisthompsonfoundation.org<http://www.davisthompsonfoundation.org> and give it a test drive! Check out the events calendar, read about our leadership, and see what's happening. Be patient in these first few weeks as we work out any bugs in functionality and get more and more content added. This website has been a personal dream of mine for a decade now, and I'm so happy to have been a part of making it happen thanks to the strong support of Bruce and Paco, and the talents of the designers. Let us know what you think! Don't forget to check out our bookstore, where in addition to books you can get newly designed t-shirts and mugs https://davisthompsonfoundation.org/product-category/foundation-promotional… Welcome to our new "home"!

ACVP Associate Professor, Department of Pathobiology College of Veterinary Medicine, Auburn University President, Davis-Thompson Foundation [cid:image001.jpg@01D77D4D.99C3F8B0]
