Biggest challenge in pathology? Keeping pace with technology and advances in science with solutions that are scalable and applicable across a wide range of practice settings. Most struggle to clearly separate things that we should do from those that we can do.
Controversial opinion? Our implementation of subspecialization in academic practices is well intended but poorly executed, burdening experts with cases that don’t benefit from their subspecialized knowledge base while eroding opportunities for community-based generalists to more effectively manage a greater share of the diagnostic burden.
Qualities of innovative thinkers? Discontent with the way things are.
