Frontiers in Gastrointestinal and Hepatobiliary Pathology

The Gastrointestinal Pathology course, presented by Harvard Medical School faculty and renowned guest faculty, aims to foster active learning among academic and community practice pathologists. It focuses on updating participants with the latest advances in gastrointestinal, pancreatic, and hepatobiliary pathology, including updates from the WHO blue books and the 8th Edition of AJCC. While the course will focus on conventional morphological analysis, diagnostically and therapeutically relevant areas of molecular pathology, immunology and machine learning will also be addressed. The course incorporates interactive learning formats, such as didactic lectures, case seminars, and frequent discussion periods. These formats encourage active participation, enabling learners to engage, share insights, and ask questions. The course allocates ample time for one-on-one contact with faculty, providing personalized guidance and feedback. The course will assist learners in formulating new strategies for their practice, ultimately leading to improved diagnostic accuracy and patient care.
