In August’s issue of The Pathologist, the curtain lifts to reveal our 2021 Power List finalists. This year, we’re celebrating pathologists and laboratory medicine professionals making their mark across six different categories: Behind the Scenes (for non-pathologist laboratory professionals), In the Spotlight (for outreach and advocacy stars), In the Wings (for those early in their careers), Leading Roles (for educators and mentors), Showstoppers (for drivers of discovery), and Front(line) and Center (for pandemic heroes). Also in this issue: modernizing point-of-care diagnostics to help avert the next pandemic, how pathologists must lead to make a difference at every stage of the patient journey, and an interview with Judy Melinek, forensic pathologist and novelist in Wellington, New Zealand.
