DEAR COLLEAGUES,

Join more than 700 of your colleagues in Orlando!On behalf of the American Society of Cytopathology, we’d like to invite you to attend the 61st Annual Scientific Meeting to be held November 8-12, 2013, at the Hilton Bonnet Creek Orlando in Orlando, Florida.

Carefully designed by the Scientific Program Committee, this year’s meeting offers attendees the opportunity to network with peers, learn new trends and hear cutting-edge scientific advancements in cytopathology from the experts. Join us this year and discover why the Annual Scientific Meeting is a unique and engaging educational experience you won’t find anywhere else.

This year’s program highlights include:• Discoverer of numerous U.S. patents, recipient of several prominent research awards,

Dr. James G. Fujimoto, principal investigator at MIT presents the Leopold Koss Lecture on “Biomedical Imaging”.

• “CSI in the Cytology Laboratory” will be presented as the New Frontiers Lecture, by Dr. Bryan K. Knight of Queensland, Australia.

• “CLIA ’88 and Cytopathology: How Was Our Practice Affected?” will be the title of our Current Issues in Cytology session this year. Dr. Diane Davey will moderate panelists, includingDrs. Austin, Birdsong, and Ms. Sue Zaleski.

• In celebration of the 25th anniversary of CLIA ‘88, investigative journalist, Walt Bogdanich, will present the Guest Lecture on his work at the Wall Street Journal on workload recommendations, immediately following Current Issues in Cytology.

• “HPV Testing” is the topic of our Hot Topic session, moderated by Dr. George G. Birdsong, with panelists including Drs. Austin, Stoler, Flowers, Gibson, and Wilbur.

• Dr. Kristen A. Atkins moderates the State of the Art Symposium on “Lung Carcinomas and

Mesotheliomas,” with panelists including Drs. Zakowski, Kipp, and Dacic.

• “Molecular Diagnostics in Cytology” will be the topic of Innovations and Trends in Medicine, with Dr. Jane S. Gibson moderating a panel including Drs. Arundhati Rao and Stephen Young.

• Diagnostic Cytology Seminar co-moderated by Dr. Mary R. Schwartz and Ms. Donna K. Russell, with panelists Dr. Yener Erozan, Dr. Rodolfo Laucirica, Dr. Savitri Krishnamurthy, and Ms. Maria A. Friedlander.

• Strategies in Cytopathology Education will contain the new ACGME accreditation requirements affecting cytopathology program directors, in one session, as two parts.

• Strategies in Cytotechnology Education discusses the hot topic of “Entry-level Competencies,” along with “Digital Strategies in Teaching GYN.”

SCHOLARSHIP WINNERS FROM LAST YEAR HAD THIS TO SAY…

“The American Society of Cytopathology meeting reinforces why we each of us has chosen our profession/field… We are all ‘saving lives, one cell at a time.’ I’m very grateful for being chosen for the Cytotechnologist scholarship award this year in Las Vegas.”

Julie DeLuca, BS, CT(ASCP)

Roswell Park Cancer Institute

“It was an amazing experience. There is nothing quite like walking into a room with hundreds of people and without saying a word knowing you have something in common with every one of them.”

Courtney Robinson BS, CT(ASCP)

University of Kansas Medical Center

“Being a first time attendee, the meeting definitely gave me a platform to meet the recognized experts in my field, interact with the peers and learn the latest trends in cytology through interactive scientific sessions.”

Gitika Aggarwal, MD

Memorial Sloan–Kettering Cancer Center

“I feel that the meeting was an important stepping stone on my career path as a cytopathologist. Presenting my poster gave me the opportunity to give something back to the field of cytopathology while meeting new colleagues in the process.”

Kim Berg, MD

Northwestern Memorial Hospitalr

“I had a fantastic experience at the 60th Annual Scientific Meeting in Las Vegas. The large talks available to all attendees were very educational and it was a privilege to hear renowned pathologists such as Dr. Pitman, Dr. Westra and Dr. Austin (to highlight just a few) speak.”
