It's one thing to talk about the advocacy pathologists engage in, but it's another to get started in that advocacy, especially in a time where getting in contact with elected officals can be more difficult than ever. Bekra Yorke, MD, FCAP, Houston Methodist Hospital Pathology invited three residents: Chiraag Gangahar, MD, FCAP, Ashley Holloman, MD, and Lukas Cara, MD, to participate in their first virtual fly in. We sat down with the four of them to discuss their experience and how other pathologists can work with the CAP to get involved in effective advocacy.

If you are a pathology resident (or a CAP fellow teaching residents), and would like to experience teachable moments like this, make sure you register for the Pathologists Leadership Summit which culminates with the CAP’s Hill Day on May 3. This year’s Hill Day is taking place virtually, so you can participate alongside colleagues, from the convenience of your home or office.
