Mentoring Mondays Calendar, Free Registration and Video Links 2024

Are you a trainee curious about pathology informatics? Join API’s live monthly “Mentoring Mondays” sessions to meet practitioners in the field and hear about their career, research experiences, and advice. This is a casual conversation - bring your questions! 

This year's format will alternate between interviews with mentors and "Fireside Chats" with leaders who will discuss salient topics for trainee education and career preparation. Interviews with mentors begin with a 10-minute “lightning round” of questions regarding how they began their career, what a typical day looks like, current projects and research interests, and how pathology informatics informs their view of the health world.  "Fireside Chats" will topically vary and provide practical presentations on topics related to pathology informatics.
