[indent=1]Dear pathologists, [/indent]
[indent=1]
On behalf of the [url="http://www.iapcentral.ca/"]International Academy of Pathology[/url] and the [url="http://www.oes.cuhk.edu.hk/adpc/"]Association of Directors of Pathology of China[/url], I would like to welcome you to the Second Neuropathology Course we are organizing in the Asia Pacific region. This will be held on September 27-29, 2013 at the Postgraduate Education Centre, Prince of Wales Hospital, the Chinese University of Hong Kong. The first course conducted two years ago ([url="http://webapps.acp.cuhk.edu.hk/course/Eng/"]http://webapps.acp.c....hk/course/Eng/[/url]) was a big success and we are very proud to offer this second course. [/indent]

While there may be slight overlap, this course is very different from the first course and caters for the needs of the diagnostic, general pathologists. The emphasis will be on brain tumours, including new entities and molecular diagnostics, as many general pathologists have to handle brain tumour specimens but we will not forget to have something on non-neoplastic neuropathology too where general pathologists "with an interest in neuropathology" sometimes have to give an opinion on.

The faculty includes many international experts, including four speakers from the WHO Brain Tumour Classification Panel in 2007 and 2015 (preliminary): [url="http://www.oes.cuhk.edu.hk/course2/Speakers.html"][b]Roger [/b][/url][url="http://www.oes.cuhk.edu.hk/course2/Speakers.html"][b]MCLENDON, Max KROS, Felice GIANGASPERO and HK NG.[/b][/url] [/indent]

I hope you will come and enjoy Hong Kong too, a fascinating city in every sense of the word![/indent]
