Digital Pathology and access to slides
Hi All,
I've stumbled across your website whilst research bone tumour pathologists.
My company is a UK based laboratory that reports annually 50,000 cases for both the private and public sector.
We have invested in 2 digital scanners with capacities of 500 slides per run and thus report around 65% of our cases through digital pathology.
I understand that in the US, digital pathology is not FDA approved for primary diagnosis - however given that we've accumulated, reported and archived...

Full-time job during gap year
I'm in a post-bacc program and will be finished with coursework in August 2017. I plan on taking the MCAT in Spring 2018 and won't start prepping until March 2018. With this said, I will have 2 years until I matriculate into medical school.
What should I do during those 2 gap years? I have extensive laboratory research, but to be honest, I don't think I could work in a lab setting for another 2 years. My undergraduate background/professional experience is in healthcare analytics and...
