r/pathology

This is a moderated forum for practicing pathologists, residents, clinical chemists, microbiologists, researchers, other clinical lab folks, and interested students. Journal club is always encouraged, but good cases, unknowns, and casual topics are great too. Whatever you want to submit. General questions about pathology and residency are welcome, but please see stickied threads or search first, questions have been asked and answered. **This is not:** - /r/AskDocs: Do not ask about your pathology report - A place to ask homework questions **Unknowns** The whole point of these [unknowns](http://www.reddit.com/r/pathology/wiki/unknowns) is for people to learn and as a place to make mistakes in a harmless and supportive environment. If you're getting everything right first go, then why even bother with this subreddit? Just do your best and learn from your mistakes. No one is going to criticise you for that. -- /u/Dr_Jerkoff **Spoiler tags** * `[Spoiler](/s "write spoiler-text inside quotes")` will render [Spoiler](/s "write spoiler-text inside quotes") **Patients**, please see your doctor. **Sales reps**, please contact people in your territory. If you're a surfer, it goes in /r/surfing. If you're in the lab, it belongs here! **Flair** similar to ask_science. If you want flair, PM the mods. Please include your area of expertise, and links to two comments that substantiate that. **Useful links** * [Guide to pathology report writing for junior residents](https://www.dropbox.com/s/gywk47b2r7frkod/Pathology%20report%20guide%20for%20junior%20residents.pdf?dl=0) * [Legal & Ethical Considerations for Pathologists Using Social Media](http://www.archivesofpathology.org/doi/pdf/10.5858/arpa.2018-0313-SA) * [Pathology Outlines](http://www.pathologyoutlines.com/) * [Enjoy Path](http://enjoypath.com/) * [Libre Pathology](https://librepathology.org/wiki/Main_Page) * More unknowns at /r/pathcases * Fellowships: [Path Resident Wiki](http://pathinfo.wikia.com/wiki/Fellowship_Directory) * /r/medicine * /r/Journal_Club * /r/askscience * /r/microbiology * /r/mycology * /r/hematology * /r/Hematopathology * /r/forensics * /r/medlabprofessionals * /r/pathcases * /r/Path_Assistant * [PubPeer - anonymous scientific review](https://pubpeer.com/) * [ASCP](http://www.ascp.org/) * [USCAP](http://www.uscap.org/home.htm) * [CAP](http://www.cap.org/apps/cap.portal) * [ICPI](http://pathologytraining.org/) * [Dr. Morgan's Mycology](http://www.microbeswithmorgan.com/)
