Rebecca L. Johnson
Rebecca is CEO Emeritus of the American Board of Pathology, Tampa, Florida. Her first lessons in anatomy and physiology took place on the Minnesota farm where she grew up. During her tenure at ABPath, she improved the Certification and Continuing Certification programs for pathologists. “I think that all board-certified pathologists, including non-time-limited diplomates, should voluntarily participate in the Continuing Certification Program to demonstrate their commitment to professionalism, life-long learning, and improvement in practice,” she says. For those starting out in similar careers, she recommends, “Love what you do and have an insatiable curiosity to constantly learn and improve.”
