WCPI07: Insight and Discovery

The advances...The impacts...The Opinions...


Dear Delegate  

Now that the program is established, the keynotes finalised and the exhibition designed, it is easy to see the significant impact that the First World Congress on Pathology Informatics is going to have. Combining the latest technology and process innovations, with the key advances by geographic region gives a truly unique conference.  This event is highly relevant to both the informatics expert and those looking to better understand the contribution of this discipline to pathology.

For those not yet involved in the field, but interested in its potential we have a special one day workshop covering the fundamentals of pathology informatics. This is being held...

Remember the early bird rate finishes on July 4. So register now and don't risk missing out.


Fundamentals of Pathology Informatics Workshop 

workshopDelivered by leaders in their fields, the workshop provides participants with an overview of current and future trends in pathology informatics. Importantly, it demonstrate how pathology informatics can improve delivery of pathology services,research outcomes and pathology education.

The workshop will be a full day consisting of lectures and interactive sessions. It has been structured to support a broad range of participants including pathology trainees, pathologists who wish to gain further insight into pathology informatics and scientists wishing to gain a insight into this rapidly developing field.

This workshop is being...

 


The Main Event

lectureWCPI 07 has an outstanding lineup of the key thought leaders in pathology informatics delivering the program keynotes. They will bring their considerable experience to examine the issues and innovations occurring in the major geographic regions around the world. They will also be presenting on the latest technology and process developments within their field.

The technology topics that will be covered are:

  • Leveraging pathologist's knowledge with workforce shortage
  • Probabilistic diagnosis; machine learning; laboratory processes
  • Digital Microscopy - Sharing; searching; analysing pictures
  • Omics - Will the laboratory of the future only need micro arrays, NMR spectroscopy and a mass spectrometer?
  • Bioinformatics in pathology
  • Shared Care - Pathology's role in the shared HER
  • Disease Surveillance - Registries; early warning systems; eNotification
  • Standards Development - Messaging; terminology; decision support
  • Pathology Order Entry - Guideline representation; decision support; terminology
  • Micro Electro-Mechanical Systems - Single chip analytical systems

These activities will be followed by a...


Making the Most of Your Conference

crowd 

Meeting the new faces and keeping in touch with your colleagues is always going to be a challenge in a rapidly evolving filed such as pathology informatics.  We have tried to make the process easier by providing some relaxed social events where you can get to know others who work in your field and further strengthen your professional networks.

 

On Wednesday evening August 15 we will be hosting the conference reception, welcoming everyone to the event. This is where you can...

 


Associated Conferences

 Conference LogoWCPI07 is being held immediately prior to Medinfo 2007, the single most important international informatics conference to be held the past 3 years.  The congress theme of building sustainable health systems, closely aligns with the objectives within pathology informatics. 

If you are interested in the broader issues associated with informatics then you have to stay on to experience this congress.  Starting with a selection of over 60 workshop and tutorials the conference proceeds into 4 days of outstanding keynotes and peer reviewed papers. If you want to find out more about this exceptional event go to www.medinfo2007.org.  You will be surprised and the breadth and quality of the programs.

Of course, nothing gets implemented without...


As the inaugural international pathology informatics congress, WCPI07 is going to be a special event.  We have assembled a distinguished group of practitioners to lead the program and created a confrence structure that will foster interactivity and discovery.  I hope you will be able to come and share this unique experience with us.

 

 

Best Regards,
