Series Director

Anthony O. Okorodudu, PhD, MBA

Target Audience and Needs

Clinical faculty, fellows, residents, medical technologists, medical students, graduate students, and clinical laboratory scientists need regular updates on current findings in the field of laboratory medicine, including pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases. There is a need to enhance the role of pathology in patient care by providing useful information via diagnostic management teams (DMTs). This series seeks to bridge the gap between clinical research and patient care by enhancing the interaction of laboratory clinicians with the different specialists in an interactive academic forum.

Educational Methods

Educational methods will include case presentations, literature review, and panel discussion.

Objectives

At the conclusion of the sessions, the participants should be able to:

  • Analyze how clinical research in pathology can enhance professional skills in patient care. 
  • Integrate pathology service procedures in various disease management algorithms.
  • Discuss recent research and diagnostic procedures in pathology.
  • Appraise new diagnostic guidelines and techniques.
Evaluation

Participants may be asked to complete a session evaluation.
