Mentoring of trainees (medical students and pathology residents) is a rewarding aspect of pathology medical education, and for the first time, the GRIPE 2019 conference in New Orleans is offering trainee mentoring opportunities by two workshops dedicated solely for trainees, which are as follows:
Second, trainees will have an opportunity to submit a poster, allowing them to include it in their curricula vitae. The deadline for this poster is October 1, 2018. GRIPE is inviting ALL trainees to submit posters for the 2019 GRIPE conference as follows:
One medical student and one resident poster will be recognized at the conference.
Third, students and pathology residents can run for positions on our first trainee committee, which will be responsible for organizing trainee activities at future GRIPE conferences.
Finally, trainees that do attend and pay their registration fee, will automatically receive a year membership in GRIPE for FREE!
PLEASE inform your trainees about this opportunity, since GRIPE’s mission will NOT be successful without your help! Thank you for being part of GRIPE!
For more information on these opportunities, please email support@gripeadmin.org.
To encourage the support of professional development for pathology educators, the Group for Research in Pathology Education (GRIPE) is again offering the John H. Holliman Resident Scholarship to a pathology resident who is sincerely interested in pursuing undergraduate or graduate teaching of pathology as part of their career planning. GRIPE is a national/international organization of institutions, interest groups, and individuals who are dedicated to improving the quality of pathology education in allopathic and osteopathic medical, nursing, dental and allied health schools.
The scholarship covers registration expenses (travel and lodging are not included) for the annual GRIPE Winter meeting will be in New Orleans, Louisiana, January 24-26, 2019. Further details of the meeting can be found online at www.gripemeeting.org.
Please encourage any of your residents who are interested in Pathology medical education to apply before October 31, 2018.
