In addition, the work-up is frequently done in a piecemeal fashion with multiple tests ordered before the involvement of trainees; this precludes independent judgment on work-up. To address these deficiencies, we evaluated the usefulness of an interactive online case-based coagulation module in four American College of Graduate Medical Education–accredited pathology training programs. Nine high-yield cases of coagulation disorders were uploaded into an online system (Pathology Playground). Fifty trainees were provided a link to work up the cases on their own several days before a discussion session, with three case sets and three discussion sessions in total (July–September 2024). In each session, cases were reviewed under the supervision of the pathology attending(s). Pre-assessment and post-assessment tests were administered, and a survey was distributed to trainees. The mean pre-assessment score was 62.5%, and the mean post-assessment score was 80.6%. In the survey, 85% of the participants found the module more useful than lectures/textbooks, 82% said they had a better understanding of working up cases, and 96% wanted more cases. The integration of the standardized module into the curriculum has been successful and improved the knowledge of our trainees.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":44927,"journal":{"name":"Academic Pathology","volume":"12 3","pages":"Article 100183"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144240699","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Bridging this gap early may enhance interest in pathology. This study evaluates the impact of participating in a Pathology Mini-Bootcamp class on pre-medical undergraduate students' knowledge and career interest. The two-week bootcamp curriculum combined virtual learning and in-person hands-on experiences covering disease mechanisms, diagnostics, and pathology's role in patient care. Pre- and post-quizzes assessed participants' knowledge and interest in pathology-related careers. Postbootcamp quiz scores improved significantly, increasing from an average of 13/30 to 23/30 points. All participants cited hands-on activities as the most engaging component. Additionally, 71.4% reported a higher likelihood of considering pathology. Seven students in total participated in this pilot class, with four committing to pursuing medical school, one to a pathologists' assistant program, one to a physician assistant program, and one to a perfusion program at the end of the class. The bootcamp successfully increased pathology knowledge and interest. One participant noted: “The course was an amazing experience and organized really well. It gave a great idea for what learning histology in medical school would be like. Also, learning about all of the careers in pathology and many different ways to get involved in the vast field was executed very well. Overall, I really enjoyed the course and learned a lot.” These findings highlight the value of early exposure to pathology in recruiting future pathologists. Future efforts should refine strategies to enhance long-term engagement and career selection in pathology.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":44927,"journal":{"name":"Academic Pathology","volume":"12 3","pages":"Article 100212"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144827456","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Under the supervision of licensed pathologists, they primarily perform the macroscopic examination and dissection of surgical specimens to prepare tissues for microscopic analysis. They also take on responsibilities in autopsy, education, quality assurance, and laboratory management. They optimize pathology services by enhancing efficiency, reducing costs, and supporting the diagnostic process. Their role has grown to include significant contributions to academic and clinical settings. This study explores the educational landscape of pathologists’ assistant programs in North America, with a focus on Canadian institutions, detailing the evolution of accredited training programs and certification processes. Currently, 16 National Accrediting Agency for Clinical Laboratory Sciences-accredited programs exist across North America. Through a program review, we found variations in class sizes, admission requirements, and tuition across North American programs. Despite differences, all programs boast high graduation, employment and certification rates, reflecting the growing demand for pathologists’ assistants in pathology. Although the pathologists’ assistant profession has grown significantly since its inception, many are still unaware of it. This review aims to serve as a comprehensive resource for prospective students who wish to learn more about the profession and its educational programs.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":44927,"journal":{"name":"Academic Pathology","volume":"12 3","pages":"Article 100209"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144827454","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the trainees and teachers were not satisfied with the current physical teaching slide sets mainly due to faded staining (47.8 % of trainees and 28.6 % of faculty). In terms of digital platforms, the respondents preferred certain digital slide viewers because of image loading speed. Respondents preferred the digital slides with annotations and explanation of features (81.8 %), in addition to the final diagnoses (90.9 %). In conclusion, this study provides direction for tailoring digital resources for trainees and teachers at our centre, which may be extrapolated to academic medical centres nationally and regionally.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":44927,"journal":{"name":"Academic Pathology","volume":"12 3","pages":"Article 100214"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144813843","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
