by Bruce Williams Sept. 12, 2020

Sept. 12, 2020

Save the Date for our first online General Pathology Review Course - Course Directors Patty Pesavento and Jose Vilches-Moure are cooking up something special for 2021.

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.

As we move into autumn, the Fondation shows no signs of slowing down - in fact we are heating up (like much of the Southern Hemisphere). In addition to our weekly Fre Friday Seminars and our bi-weekly Tuesday Day-SEminars, the fall is the time of year when many of our Divisions around the world hold their annual meetings (today is Uruguay's annual meeting!) and we also have a slate of workshops in conjunction with other organizations at THEIR annuals meeting (Hello AAVLD, Hello ACVP!). Take a peek inside for these meetings and more and catch the recaps on ones that you might have missed! We hope to see you (virtually!) at one, more, or ALL of our meetings this fall and by the way, have you bought the new fascicle - Tumors of the Soft Tissues?

Black Voices in Pathology and FREE CE - this Tuesday!
by Bruce Williams July 26, 2020

July 26, 2020

The Davis-Thompson Foundation wholeheartedly and without reservation supports the Black Lives Matter movement. Since our inception in 1970, our tenets have always included that the Foundation does not discriminate against race. It is all well and good for an organization to issue a statement that says that they support Black Lives Matter, but we in the Foundation believe that now is a time for meaningful change. Our “Black Voices in Pathology” seminar on July 28 is only a first step. Our already diverse Board of Directors currently seats two black veterinary pathologists, Dr. Tiffany Lyle, head of our Correspondence Division and Dr. Lonzy Ojok of the University of Harare. We are adding a third prominent black pathologist, Dr. Angela Brice of the University of Pennsylvania, as a permanent ad hoc member to oversee all of the Foundation’s business from an inclusion and diversity standpoint. We look forward to working closely w ith her, and translating her ideas and input into programs that will better serve all of our members around the world. Beyond this seminar on Black Voices in Pathology, we will be having additional seminars, both day-seminars and our free Friday seminars which will highlight black pathologists and those in other minorities, whose voices are not always heard in our profession. It is our goal that one or more Friday seminars each month will be presented by a black pathologist or member of another minority group. This initiative is not only one that will be important for the Foundation in the United States, but one that we believe will translate well in all corners of the globe where the Foundation educates its members. In order to introduce our “Black Voices in Pathology” to its largest possible audience, we are providing a full day of free RACE CE to attendees. We also hope that our colleagues and friends will share this flyer within their veterinary schools, as this slate of speakers are an inspiring group and we hope many veterinary students will be part of this audience. Register in advance for this webinar: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_T_i09oihTuW0xEx8vbiPXg <https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_T_i09oihTuW0xEx8vbiPXg?fbclid=I…> After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the webinar. Join us on our first steps, spend the day with outstanding pathologists, their experiences and wisdom, and get free CE in the bargain. Thank you for being a part of this movement, and our community. Bruce Williams, DVM CEO, Davis-Thompson Foundation
