The Twelve Months of APC 2020

Join us as we look back at 2021! We are ringing in the new year by highlighting a few of APC's many activities and achievements in 2021...


January

  • APC Announces 2021 Advocacy Priorities
    In cooperation with APC’s Advocacy Committee, which consists of representatives from the Graduate Medical Education, Practice & Management, Research, and Undergraduate Medical Education Committees, APC Council issues their 2021 Advocacy Priorities. These priorities guide each committee and staff in their advocacy-related work throughout the year.


  • Research Committee Closes Internally-Funded Research Survey
    APC’s Research Committee closes their first survey since 2009 on research trends in academic pathology departments. This expanded survey includes questions on practice-advancing research and physician-scientist training opportunities. The latter is provided to the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) as part of their data collection efforts to increase medical students’ awareness of research opportunities in pathology. The survey results and strategies for developing internally-funded research are later discussed during the Research Session at the APC 2021 Annual Meeting.


  • APC Supports FY22 National Institutes of Health (NIH) Funding
    APC signs on to a letter of support organized by AAMC’s Ad Hoc Group for Medical Research. The letter recommends for FY22 a program level of at least $46.111 billion, which represents a $3.177 billion increase over the comparable FY21 funding level. This funding would allow for the NIH’s base budget to keep pace with the biomedical research and development price index (BRDPI) and allow meaningful growth of 5%. The letter also advocates for emergency supplemental funding to support COVID-19-related expenses associated with both pandemic- and non-pandemic research and the research workforce pipeline.


  • APC Hosts a Virtual Town Hall on Leading Through Crisis
    Sponsored by the APC Senior Fellows Group and the Leadership Development and Diversity Committee, APC members meet for an in-depth discussion led by a panel of department leaders with insights on (1) key competencies during high-stress times, especially in dealing with the impact on departments, institutions, and local communities, and (2) personal coping and resilience techniques for dealing with all aspects of high stress in leadership teams, faculty, trainees, and staff.

February

  • NEW APC Clinical Service Leaders Committee
    APC Council and the Practice & Management Committee announce the formation of a new committee to better serve and support academic clinical service chiefs and directors. The new ad hoc Clinical Service Leaders Committee seeks to recruit chiefs of pathology in affiliated hospitals, directors of anatomic, surgical or clinical pathology, and laboratory directors. Together, they will discuss and develop activities that address their professional needs as vital academic laboratory leaders.

  • Article on Ethics of Artificial Intelligence Published in Academic Pathology
    James Crawford, MD, PhD, Liron Pantanowitz, MD, MHA and co-authors give an important perspective on how to apply long-standing principles of ethics to emerging applications of artificial intelligence in pathology and laboratory medicine. APC’s Open-Access Journal, Academic Pathology, publishes their paper entitled “The Ethics of Artificial Intelligence in Pathology and Laboratory Medicine: Principles and Practice,” on February 16, 2021. This paper remains one of the most-viewed articles throughout the year.


  • RADx Update
    As NIH’s RADx testing initiatives continue to develop, APC asks the National Institutes of Health if there would be a convenient way to update APC’s members on the status of approvals, availability, and pricing of RADx-funded tests. The RADx program directors respond by creating a portfolio summary document with information that is updated monthly and making it available to APC Chair members.


  • Southeast Regional Chairs & Administrators Host a Virtual Meeting
    The University of Texas Medical Branch hosts the Southeast Regional Chairs and Administrators meeting virtually on Wednesday, February 10th and Thursday, February 11th.

 April

  • APC Supports the VITAL Act and CLIA Oversight of LDTs
    APC endorses the Verified Innovative Testing in American Laboratories (VITAL) Act, which would codify current federal regulations that place oversight of laboratory-developed tests (LDTs) under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 (CLIA) administered by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). In cooperation with the Association for Molecular Pathology (AMP), the American Association for Clinical Chemistry (AACC) and the American College of Medical Genetics (ACMG), APC submits a letter of support for reintroduction of VITAL to the bill’s sponsor, Senator Rand Paul.


  • APC Launches the New PhD Program Leaders Committee
    Members of APC Council and the Research Committee, along with the American Society for Investigative Pathology (ASIP), create a new PhD Program Leaders Committee to better serve graduate programs in pathology or multi-disciplinary programs in the biomedical sciences. This ad hoc committee is comprised of Vice Chairs for Research and PhD Program leaders. The committee aims to identify approaches and best practices to ensure the pipeline of pre-docs into PhD programs and postdoctoral fellows into pathology faculty research laboratories, ideally to pursue careers in pathology departments, and to develop PhD faculty to successfully interface with clinical faculty.


  • Most Read Article of 2021 Published in Academic Pathology
    Academic Pathology publishes an article written by members from NorthShore University Health System entitled, “From Testing to Decision-Making: A Data-Driven Analytics COVID-19 Response” on April 20, 2021. This becomes the most-read article of 2021 and demonstrates how members can utilize APC’s Open-Access Journal, Academic Pathology, to further academic pathology’s understanding and response to the most pressing issues in medicine.


  • New Resource for Program Directors Launches
    APC collaborates with the College of American Pathologists to launch the Program Directors' Toolbox.

  • Academic Pathology Publishes COVID-19 Special Collection
    This collection illustrates how academic pathology departments met the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic by adjusting nearly every aspect of their operations, teaching, staffing and finances. These articles were submitted between September and December 2020, reflecting experiences within the first 10 months of the outbreak. The importance of the lab to healthcare has never been more apparent. Sharing these innovations and best practices is a valuable step to showcase the stunning advances and adaptations made by departments of academic pathology in order to serve the Public Good.

  • APC Supports the ACLU’s Efforts Against Gene Patenting
    APC signs onto the American Civil Liberties Union’s (ACLU) coalition letter to the Biden Administration against gene patenting and related issues. The letter expresses opposition to legislation and regulatory action that would overturn established Supreme Court precedent and expand patent-eligible subject matter to encompass abstract ideas, laws of nature, and natural phenomena. Click here to read the full letter.


  • APC Issues a Statement on Fellowship Recruitment Practices
    Consistent with APC’s advocacy priority to “collect data on unexpected fellowship openings and resident concerns about the fellowship recruitment process to inform recommendations for systemic changes”, APC Council and PRODS Council recognize the increasing numbers of unexpected fellowship openings (defined as fellows withdrawing their commitments within 18 months of matriculation). The Councils jointly approve a statement concerning this urgent matter and member feedback is continuously welcomed at [email protected].

  • APC Administers a Chair Characteristics Survey
    In cooperation with APC’s Leadership Development and Diversity Committee, Melissa George, DO, Pennsylvania State College of Medicine, organizes a survey of chairs and interim chairs in US and Canadian Departments of Pathology to collect data that will help develop profiles of chair “phenotypes” by academic credentials, leadership background, subspecialty focus, and other characteristics. There is a substantial body of literature on the personal characteristics and motivations of individuals becoming chairs in other medical specialties, as well as data on gender and race, however, little is formally known about the “phenotype” or career pathways of academic pathology chairs. This survey aims to determine whether dominant phenotypes exist and, if so, what they are, with the intention of preparing a manuscript for submission to APC’s journal, Academic Pathology.


  • Most Read Educational Case of 2021 Published in Academic Pathology
    Educational cases highlight key teaching points of the learning objectives of the three competencies and clinical thinking of the Pathology Competencies for Medical Education (PCME). The PCME were created by pathology chairs and course directors to serve as a national standard identifying the core content for teaching pathology in three basic competencies: disease mechanisms, integration of disease mechanisms into organ system pathology, and application of pathology to diagnostic medicine. Academic Pathology publishes over 25 new Educational Cases in 2021, bringing the total number of cases to 125. Click here to learn more about PCME.

  • UMEDS Toolbox - New Resources Added
