The goal of the Academy is to provide high quality continuing medical education. Realizing that many members are unable to attend the Annual Meeting, the USCAP is making some of the educational material from that meeting available on this web site. These materials provide an excellent source of information and they are provided free of charge as a service to the pathology community.
