.#Pathology education has historically depended on geography, institutional privilege, cost, and access. We wanted to challenge that. What started during the chaos of COVID became something much bigger. Our new paper on @PathElective shows that a free, virtual, globally accessible pathology education platform reached learners across nearly every region of the world, across diverse backgrounds, training levels, identities, and lived experiences. More importantly, the data tell a deeper story. Nearly a quarter of respondents reported difficulty accessing reliable internet. Less than half grew up in English-speaking households. Many were balancing jobs while training. And yet, 76% felt PathElective was more accessible than traditional educational resources, while 72% felt it filled an unmet educational need. That matters because education should not belong only to those born into the “right” systems. For years, pathology has talked about visibility, access, pipeline development, and global engagement. This project was an attempt to actually build something instead of just talking about it. Proud of this work and proud of the incredible collaborators who helped create PathElective. Proud that a pathology platform built with generosity and community at its core could reach people from around the world. And honestly, I think this is just the beginning of what democratized medical education can become. @AcadPathol @apcprods @UMichPath #Pathology #MedEd #MedicalEducation #DigitalPathology #PathTwitter #FOAMed #GlobalHealth #Hematopathology #PathElective #AcademicMedicine #MedicalStudents #Residency #MedicalEducationResearch clinicalkey.com/#!/content/p…

A little over two years ago, I stood in front of the @LoyolaStritch Class of 2026 as their M2 pathology instructor before heading to Michigan. Last week, I had the profound honor of returning to deliver their commencement address. Full circle in the best possible way. I spoke to them about curiosity, wonder, resilience. About the bone marrow, of course (I promise it made sense). I want them to remember that medicine is still sacred work. In a world moving faster and louder every day, I hope they protect the part of themselves that still pauses in awe at the privilege of caring for another human being. To the Stritch School of Medicine Class of 2026: thank you for allowing me to be a small part of your journey, both then and now. Watching you cross that stage was a privilege I will never forget. Never stop exploring. youtu.be/JRSdL1LpDrg?si=IuhG…
