DTF Newsletter; June issue
by Francisco A. Uzal June 1, 2023

June 1, 2023

Dear colleagues, Welcome to the June issue of the Davis-Thompson Foundation Newsletter, courtesy of our great Managing Editors, Javier Asin and Jean Leal. Thank you, Javier and Jeann. This is a fantastic issue with a large amount of information on training activities and much more. To start with, another very successful version of the 2023 Descriptive Veterinary Pathology Course is coming to an end this week. On the same line, remember that the Current Literature and Image Interpretation Course (CLIIC; formerly "the Gross Course") and the Current Laboratory Animal Science Seminar (CLASS) and Pathology of Laboratory Animals (POLA) courses come up very soon. Both courses are a must for trainees preparing for board certification. A new addition to the 2023 calendar of training activities is a hands-on workshop on necropsy of racehorses, coming up on August 18-19. This course was developed in response to the new rule by the US Horseracing Integrity and Safety Authority (HISA) establishing that all horses that die at a racetrack under the jurisdiction of HISA must undergo a necropsy examination. If you work at a laboratory that receives racehorses for necropsy, this course is for you. Seats are limited; please consider registering soon. Last but not least, this month we are also proud to welcome the Australian Society for Veterinary Pathology (ASVP) corner in our newsletter. In this section, we reproduce a selection of cases from the March 2023 edition of The Scope, the newsletter of the ASVP. We hope you enjoy this great material. Looking forward to see many of you in one of our upcoming training activities. Francisco Uzal, DVM, MSc, PhD, Dipl.

Descriptive Veterinary Pathology registration is OPEN!
by Jey Koehler March 10, 2023

March 10, 2023

Look, I'm going to be real with you, folks. Whether you are in a commercial diagnostic pathology lab, an academic institution, a drug discovery team, or a CRO, being able to recognize and describe gross, microscopic, and ultrastructural findings and interpret IHC/ISH and PCR has always mattered, matters now, and will always matter. (At least until ChatGPT starts writing our reports!) The 2023 in-person Descriptive Veterinary Pathology course is a fantastic opportunity to separate yourself from your work responsibilities for a week, focus completely on your own education, and make friends you will have for a lifetime. Is it more expensive and logistically challenging to travel? Yes. Is the experience of taking this one precious week to focus only on your learning and not be distracted by 100 other things worth it? YES!! Please join us as we return to in-person format for the Descriptive Veterinary Pathology course at the University of Minnesota College of Veterinary Medicine. In addition to many hours of lectures by Drs. Linden Craig, Patty Pesavento, and myself, as well as FIVE mock tests including multiple-choice and slide descriptions, registration includes coffee breaks and a catered lunch each day. On Wednesday evening we have a social hour where you can get to know your fellow participants and hang out with the instructors and local hosts. Minneapolis/St. Paul is usually gorgeous in the summer, with tons of great restaurants and breweries! The schedule will run Wednesday to Sunday rather than Monday through Friday, in an effort to help people minimize the number of days off they need to negotiate. Please join us! For more information and to register, visit https://davisthompsonfoundation.org/event/2023-descriptive-veterinary-patho… Please note: in an effort to make sure we achieve numbers of participants that support the in-person option and the extra work and expense that entails, there will be no hybrid, virtual, or recorded option this year. Register soon! If you are unable to come to Minneapolis this year, please continue to use the many, many study resources that the Foundation provides free of charge, like Free Friday and REWIND seminars, the many great videos on the YouTube channel, Noah's Arkive and Noah's Slidebox, the LCPG Diagnostic Exercises, and more.

March issue of Davis-Thompson Foundation Newsletter
by Francisco A. Uzal March 1, 2023

March 1, 2023

Dear colleagues Welcome to the March issue of the Davis-Thompson Foundation Newsletter, brilliantly prepared, as always, by our great Managing Editors, Javier Asin and Jeann Leal. Thank you Javier and Jeann! This issue is chock full of information about our myriad training activities around the globe, including, amongst others, three of the 4 "big ones": Descriptive Veterinary Pathology Course, CLIIC, CLASS & POLA (Gen Path was already successfully completed in February). Also, have a look at the table of activities in Latin America with an impressive number of courses and seminars throughout the continent! Of particular interest is the article prepared by our Chief Financial Officer, Dr Bruce Williams, on the Foundation's Noah's Slidebox, a terrific new addition to the training toolbox of the Foundation and available for free to pathologists and trainees around the globe. This month we are very proud to present in our "Expert's Corner" section a great article prepared by Dr Roger Kelly (University of Queensland, Australia) on gross examination of the bone marrow. As Roger explains in his article, this is knowledge that comes after many years of working in the PM room and is hard, or sometimes impossible, to find in the literature. Another legend of veterinary pathology, Dr Grant Maxie, has provided this month's fantastic editorial on ongoing competence of diagnostic veterinary pathologists; look it in "JVDI in focus". Thank you Roger and Grant. Looking forward to seeing everyone in one of our seminars. Kind regards Francisco (Paco) Uzal, DVM, MSc, PhD, Dipl.
