Proper patient management must involve a multidisciplinary process that integrates morphology, immunophenotyping, genetics, and directed molecular testing. Precise diagnosis, classification, and identification of prognostic indicators of hematologic neoplasms are essential components of that process. At this course, nationally recognized faculty will share their experiences and insights to provide you with a state-of-the-art update on the diagnosis, classification, and prognostication of problematic neoplasms.
You’ll learn practical approaches to real-life challenges. Discussions will include: morphologic features and differential diagnoses in lymph nodes, bone marrow, and other tissues. You’ll gain a better understanding of the importance of a multidisciplinary approach to diagnosis, the most advantageous applications of immunophenotyping and genetic and molecular studies, and more. You will gain a wealth of information about recent developments in neoplastic hematopathology, along with indispensable guidance for accurate diagnoses of the common and unusual patient conditions that you may encounter.
[b]Following this course, you will be able to:[/b]
• Devise an individual practice-based system for efficient and appropriate use of immunophenotyping, cytogenetic and molecular techniques.
• Apply a multidisciplinary approach to diagnosis and classification of hematopoietic neoplasms.
• Apply the 2008 revised WHO classification of hematopoietic neoplasms.
• Determine the differential diagnosis for specific lymphoid and myeloid neoplasms, using a multidisciplinary approach.
[b]Core competencies: [/b] PC, MK, PBL, SBP
[b]Intended Audience:[/b] Pathologists, Hematopathologists, Oncologists, and Pathology Residents.

The 27th Annual Scientific Meeting (including the Annual General Meeting) will be held on Thursday 15th and Friday 16th November 2012 at Alderley Park, Macclesfield.
Registration for this meeting is now open to both members and non-members of the BSTP. [i][b]Registration will close on Thursday 1st November 2012.[/b][/i]
The aim of the meeting is to look at [b]Drug delivery - problems & pathology encountered or "Nil by mouth - pathology of alternative drug delivery"[/b]
[b]Who should attend[/b] - experienced pathologists who have been working in the field for a number of years and more junior members of the profession who would learn from the experience of the speakers in order to progress their careers.
A conference dinner will be held on Thursday 15th November, the cost of which is included in the registration fee.
The BSTP are pleased to announce that the Royal College of Pathologists have again awarded the [b]Kohn Memorial Lecture[/b] to the Society and the keynote talk will be on [b]Targeted drug delivery for cancer[/b].

Description: The Inaugural Penn Center for Human Appearance (CHA) Comprehensive Facial Reconstruction Fall 2012 Symposium espouses the principles of multidisciplinary education by incorporating the expertise of various disciplines that perform facial reconstruction for injury, deformity, and aesthetics, namely: plastic surgery, dermatology, oculoplastic surgery, otorhinolaryngology, and oromaxillofacial surgery. Course participants from all medical and surgical specialties that treat physical appearance will learn how colleagues in each of these inter-related specialties approach facial reconstruction. Through didactic lectures, video demonstrations, hot topics, panel discussions, and cadaveric dissections, this symposium will reinforce well-established reconstructive concepts, highlight recent advances such as composite tissue allotransplantation, and question certain dogma related to facial reconstruction. The cadaveric dissections will be offered to a limited number of participants to further strengthen the principles noted above.
