Meet the College’s Undergraduate and Foundation Lead, neuropathologist Dr Matthew Clarke.

Back in April, we announced the winners of the College’s 2024 Trainees’ Gold and Silver Research Medals.

In April's issue of the Bulletin, we were delighted to announce the 2024 winners of the College’s Trainees’ Gold and Silver Research Medals. 

As we reach the end of Volunteers’ Week, we are concluding our volunteer spotlight with our third and final set of reflections from volunteer examiners.

We are continuing our celebration of Volunteers’ Week by sharing more testimonials from our volunteer examiners.

As we come to the end of Volunteers’ Week 2024, we hope you have seen the diversity of volunteer activities within the College, and how enjoyable and satisfying the work can be for those members involved.

One of the largest areas of opportunity to volunteer with the College is as part of the governing bodies and committee structure. We work with approximately 550 member volunteers across more than 40 committees and groups, covering all 17 pathology specialties. 

Today’s Volunteers' Week blog is all about inspiring the next generation of pathologists. The current workforce crisis only serves to heighten the importance of encouraging more medical students to specialise in the profession.

For today’s Volunteers’ Week blog, we’re going global. As an international professional body, around a quarter of our members are based outside of the UK. We are proud to represent such a diverse membership base and we are committed to raising standards in pathology around the world for the benefit of all.  

The rapid advancement of digital technology and AI, and its potential to have a radical impact on pathology practice, is a highly discussed topic of late. To find out more about digital pathology and its potential, we spoke to Professor Darren Treanor, Digital Pathology Lead at RCPath.

The College would not exist without the hard work and support of our members. However, the same must also be said of our staff. Behind the scenes, every directorate at the College is working to deliver high-quality services that enhance the professional lives of our members. Together, we are constantly striving towards the College’s mission of promoting and advancing excellence in pathology, with our members at the core of everything we do.

‘Don’t Just Read the Abstract’ is a new pathology podcast produced by co-hosts Dr Pip Nicolson and Dr Richard Buka.
