    Coming up, phew, it was a busy and festive week at CAP25, and the news keeps coming. There's a new governor on the CAP board, plus we look at CAP25 science news and microbial research that might worry Ray Bradbury. This and more next on the Path News Network. Welcome to the Path News Network Daily Edition, powered by the College of American Pathologists. I'm Elizabeth McMahon. It's Friday, September 19th, and here are the headlines. The CAP welcomed Dr. Aaron Auerbach to the Board of Governors this week. His appointment fills the vacancy left by Dr. Kalisha Hill, who's now the CAP's president-elect. Dr. Auerbach is a familiar face in the CAP. Among other roles, he's served in the House of Delegates, the Surgical Pathology Committee, and last year he received the CAP Distinguished Patient Care Award. His day job is a big one. He's senior hematopathologist at the Joint Pathology Center in Silver Spring, Maryland. CAP's pathologists made science headlines at the annual meeting. Among the week's news, members presented oncology findings on gastric, cervical, and lung cancers. Other releases included research from the Mayo Clinic on an approach to thyroid function testing that could reduce unnecessary and costly lab tests. Get all the CAP25 science coverage from Medscape and the Oncology Learning Network in our show notes. Around the Orlando Convention Hall this week, CAP members broke a few attendance records, including in the Lab Inspector Training Room, where more than 200 first-time attendees and seasoned inspectors learned the latest skills and protocols. The deep dive included how to prepare for an inspection, how to spot deficiencies and ask questions, and how to ensure compliance with CAP accreditation. Learn more about upcoming trainings at the link in our show notes. And finally, a story straight out of Star Trek, microbes as microprocessors. A research team from Rice University has received a $1.9 million grant from the National Science Foundation to develop platforms that combine microbes with electronic networks. Envision a futuristic PC outfitted with biosensors that can identify diseases or environmental contamination. Though the research sounds like it would make HAL 9000 proud, it's a long way from reality. The Rice researchers will also be exploring the legal, ethical, and social aspects of using microbe computers in the mainstream. Read more about the project in the show notes. That wraps it up for today. Don't forget to check your inbox for more news like this in the CAP's Advocacy Newsletter every Tuesday and our Weekly Edition Newsletter on Thursdays. We'll see you Monday at 5 a.m. Eastern with the Daily Edition. You can subscribe to this show on Apple, Spotify, or your favorite podcast app. I'm Elizabeth McMahon. Have a great weekend.
