AAPath 2026 Consolidated Regional Meeting Reflection

Thank you to the 63 participants who attended the 2nd annual AAPath Consolidated Regional Meeting of Chairs and Administrators from January 16th through 19th at The Ritz-Carlton, Amelia Island, Florida! The joint and breakout sessions focused on (1) Implementing and Preparing for Digital Pathology and Artificial Intelligence, (2) Leadership in Education and Training, (3) Advocating for the Academic Department, and (4) Faculty Recruitment and Development, all with an overarching question on “What can AAPath do?” in each of these areas. The deep and intimate discussions in smaller groups helped focus on the needs of pathology departments, as well as potential avenues to address these gaps to make the AAPath the professional home for academic pathology leaders. The reception, breakfasts, and recreational activities provided an intentional but relaxed atmosphere for networking and socializing among colleagues and friends. Chairs and APEX members should mark your calendars now and save the date for the 2027 Consolidated Regional Meeting (January 15th-18th) when we return to the Terranea Resort in Ranchos Palos Verdes, California (southwest of Los Angeles and west of Long Beach)! Registration will open later this summer.
