Dear Colleagues in Pathology:
On behalf of the California Society of Pathologists (CSP), I am proud to present our 65th Annual Meeting,
“Seminars in Pathology.†The 2012 educational program once again invites you to beautiful San Francisco
bringing distinguished faculty from outstanding institutions throughout the country.
The courses, tutorials and lectures present a diversity of topics that are relevant and practical to practicing
pathologists, while introducing important new concepts useful in day-to-day practice. Courses will provide opportunities
to receive continuing medical education credits and some will provide Self Assessment Module credit
(SAMS). The Special Lecture will provide a current perspective on formatting reports by Dr. Paul Valenstein, and
the clinical pathology lecture will feature a discussion of proteomics in pathology by Dr. Ahmet Dogan. Register
early to reserve your seat at the highly sought-after video tutorials where space is limited.
Don’t miss what promises to be another interesting, informative and meaningful meeting—designed to
enhance your practice by providing seminars in liver, head and neck, pulmonary, endocrine, and GI pathology.
Join your pathology colleagues from California and all over the country for what promises to be an exceptional
program to be held at the Hyatt Regency Embarcadero from November 27–December 1, 2012.
Additionally, CSP is organized with member support as its primary goal. Pathologists need to proactively
organize to assure the viability of continuing medical education; advocacy related to governmental regulations;
evolve practice management perspectives; and communicate challenging ideas that protect and reinforce our
specialty. The mechanism exists to accomplish these objectives through membership in the California Society of
Pathologists. With your participation and support, pathology will survive at the heart of medicine.
