Today, how will the Trump administration's new AI policy impact pathologists? Plus, we talk with Dr. Kisha Mitchell-Richards about what you can get at CAP25 that you won't find anywhere else. Coming up on the Path News Network. This is the Path News Network Daily Edition, powered by the College of American Pathologists. I'm Dafna Farkas. It's Wednesday, August 6th. Here are the latest headlines. The White House recently released a National Artificial Intelligence Policy Framework positioning the U.S. as a world leader in tech. In addition to pushing AI adoption across the healthcare sector, other policies, like creating AI-ready scientific datasets, may impact pathologists. The CAP will continue monitoring the plan's progress and providing updates as needed. Read the full Winning the Race plan through the link in the show notes. Are you considering CAP membership? Dr. Desiree Carlson joined the CAP over 45 years ago and says what started with the lab inspection during residency has led to decades of leadership, education, and lifelong professional connections. From shaping national policy to staying current on lab innovations, she highlights how the CAP offers pathologists a powerful way to stay informed, give back, and lead the future of laboratory medicine. To join the CAP as a member, follow the link in the show notes. Pathologists can boost their influence through the CAP's Engaged Leadership Academy. They'll get training in strategic communication, preparing them to advocate for their practice with hospital leaders, legislators, and beyond. In addition to earning CME credit, this course is an investment in their voice, their value, and their future as leaders in medicine. This year's session takes place November 15th to 16th at the CAP headquarters in Northfield, Illinois. And finally, don't miss out on this year's CAP annual meeting, CAP 25. Taking place in Orlando, Florida, September 13th to 16th, join the leading minds of pathology for opportunities to grow, connect, and be inspired. The link to register is in today's episode notes. But first, Dr. Kisha Mitchell-Richards chairs the CAP Curriculum Committee and joins us to discuss the event. What will pathologists get at CAP25 that they can't get elsewhere?
So the spirit of CAP25 is only at CAP25. It is where you meet with colleagues who are not predominantly academic, who are not predominantly community or private practice, but where there is meeting of the minds of all of these different types of pathologists from different community and academic settings, where you can get together and have conversations and have spectacular learning that's catering to all. all of these different types of people. So it's not a purely academic pathologist meeting like other meetings. It's not a meeting that has, although necessary, a lot of laboratory professionals. It's a meeting solely devoted to pathologists being celebrated, having their knowledge flow, and making connections in a dynamic way that you can't get in another meeting.
What will differentiate this year's meetings from past meetings?
So one thing I do want to say about all our meetings is we have one thing in common, is you get amazing value for money. For one price, you get all of this amazing education. You also get fed. That's something we don't talk about, but coming from medical student days, we know we like that but at every meeting and CAP25 is no different. We pay attention to what is happening. What do we need to be talking about? And so when you come to CAP25, although you will still have the core education that we've always had at 24, 23, 22, at 25 what you'll find is there are courses that have responded to changes within the last year that we need to hear about, that we need to discuss, that we need to understand. And so when you come to 25, you'll be updated on everything that happened between 24 and 25. You'll understand more about how many changes will affect you and your daily practice and your daily work.
And what are some of the sessions that you're personally excited about?
I'm really excited about the three plenaries. I want to start with that first of all. One of the plenaries, the scientific plenary, is on the lab from the front, from the lab to the front lines and it's going to address how pathologists can address climate-driven disease. Basically for you to say where is the next pandemic coming and what's going to be my role in it. One of the other plenaries that I'm really excited about is a keynote. And this keynote is from a physician, Brian Anderson, and he's going to be talking about the perils and promise of AI and digital pathology. And in a real way, sometimes the keynote doesn't necessarily hit the mark for pathology. This keynote is going to do that, and I'm really excited to hear about that. Two other things I want to specifically mention is we have hot topics this year that are going to look at many of the changes that have happened And on a federal level between November and now and tell us how do they affect us and I'm really excited to hear about that. I don't know if you can go anywhere else and hear that kind of conversation so I think CAP25 is a place to hear that and then lastly I want to mention we had last year some bite-sized some short pearls that did basic histology and pathology we'll have those again. But this year, we're going to have another set of interactive bite-sized learning. We're going to be using a case-based approach to some challenging concepts. And some of those concepts are going to be clinical laboratory-driven, as well as anatomic pathology. Very often, these short bite-sized courses are only AP. But this year, we're going to have some AP and CP. And those are just some of the things I'm really excited about.
That's all for today. Be sure to watch your email inbox for more news like this in the CAP's Advocacy Newsletter every Tuesday and our Weekly Edition Newsletter every Thursday.
