Pathology is vital to healthcare but remains underrepresented in medical education, with limited awareness among pre-medical students. Bridging this gap early may enhance interest in pathology. This study evaluates the impact of participating in a Pathology Mini-Bootcamp class on pre-medical undergraduate students' knowledge and career interest. The two-week bootcamp curriculum combined virtual learning and in-person hands-on experiences covering disease mechanisms, diagnostics, and pathology's role in patient care. Pre- and post-quizzes assessed participants' knowledge and interest in pathology-related careers. Postbootcamp quiz scores improved significantly, increasing from an average of 13/30 to 23/30 points. All participants cited hands-on activities as the most engaging component. Additionally, 71.4% reported a higher likelihood of considering pathology. Seven students in total participated in this pilot class, with four committing to pursuing medical school, one to a pathologists' assistant program, one to a physician assistant program, and one to a perfusion program at the end of the class. The bootcamp successfully increased pathology knowledge and interest. One participant noted: “The course was an amazing experience and organized really well. It gave a great idea for what learning histology in medical school would be like. Also, learning about all of the careers in pathology and many different ways to get involved in the vast field was executed very well. Overall, I really enjoyed the course and learned a lot.” These findings highlight the value of early exposure to pathology in recruiting future pathologists. Future efforts should refine strategies to enhance long-term engagement and career selection in pathology.

病理学对医疗保健至关重要，但在医学教育中仍然代表性不足，医学预科学生的意识有限。尽早弥合这一差距可能会增强对病理学的兴趣。本研究旨在评估参加病理学迷你训练营对医学预科本科生的知识和职业兴趣的影响。为期两周的训练营课程结合了虚拟学习和亲身体验，涵盖了疾病机制、诊断和病理学在患者护理中的作用。测试前和测试后评估了参与者对病理学相关职业的知识和兴趣。训练营后的测验成绩显著提高，从平均13/30分增加到23/30分。所有参与者都认为实践活动是最吸引人的部分。此外，71.4%的人表示更有可能考虑病理。总共有七名学生参加了这个试点课程，其中四人承诺继续攻读医学院，一人参加病理学家助理项目，一人参加医师助理项目，还有一人在课程结束时参加灌注项目。训练营成功地增加了病理学知识和兴趣。一位参与者说：“这门课程是一次很棒的经历，组织得非常好。这让我对在医学院学习组织学有了一个很好的想法。此外，学习病理学的所有职业以及参与这个广阔领域的许多不同方式都执行得很好。总的来说，我真的很喜欢这门课，学到了很多东西。”这些发现突出了早期接触病理学对招募未来病理学家的价值。未来的努力应完善策略，以提高长期参与和职业选择病理。

Pathologists’ assistants are physician extenders who play a critical role in anatomic pathology, specializing in surgical and autopsy pathology. Under the supervision of licensed pathologists, they primarily perform the macroscopic examination and dissection of surgical specimens to prepare tissues for microscopic analysis. They also take on responsibilities in autopsy, education, quality assurance, and laboratory management. They optimize pathology services by enhancing efficiency, reducing costs, and supporting the diagnostic process. Their role has grown to include significant contributions to academic and clinical settings. This study explores the educational landscape of pathologists’ assistant programs in North America, with a focus on Canadian institutions, detailing the evolution of accredited training programs and certification processes. Currently, 16 National Accrediting Agency for Clinical Laboratory Sciences-accredited programs exist across North America. Through a program review, we found variations in class sizes, admission requirements, and tuition across North American programs. Despite differences, all programs boast high graduation, employment and certification rates, reflecting the growing demand for pathologists’ assistants in pathology. Although the pathologists’ assistant profession has grown significantly since its inception, many are still unaware of it. This review aims to serve as a comprehensive resource for prospective students who wish to learn more about the profession and its educational programs.

病理学助理是在解剖病理学中发挥关键作用的医师扩展者，专门从事外科和尸检病理学。在有执照的病理学家的监督下，他们主要对手术标本进行宏观检查和解剖，为显微镜分析准备组织。他们还承担尸检、教育、质量保证和实验室管理的责任。它们通过提高效率、降低成本和支持诊断过程来优化病理服务。他们的角色已经发展到包括对学术和临床环境的重大贡献。本研究探讨了北美病理学家助理项目的教育前景，重点是加拿大机构，详细介绍了认可培训项目和认证过程的演变。目前，北美有16个国家临床实验室科学认证机构认可的项目。通过项目回顾，我们发现北美各个项目在班级规模、入学要求和学费方面存在差异。尽管存在差异，但所有项目都有很高的毕业率、就业率和认证率，这反映出对病理学家助理的需求不断增长。尽管病理学家的助理职业自成立以来有了显著的发展，但许多人仍然没有意识到这一点。本综述旨在为希望更多地了解该专业及其教育计划的未来学生提供全面的资源。

In recent years, there has been a gradual increase in adoption of digital pathology tools in postgraduate pathology training in Singapore. Trainees’ and faculty members’ utilisation and preferences regarding digital pathology tools for teaching and learning were hitherto unknown in Singapore. Hence, the aim of this observational study was to explore trainees’ and faculty members’ attitudes and perceptions towards the adoption of digital pathology tools for pathology education, and to guide institutional decisions on digital pathology resources to develop and/or invest in. A questionnaire was distributed to faculty members and trainees. Twenty-three responses from trainees and 10 responses from faculty members (“teachers”) were received. The results showed no significant difference in trainees’ use of physical and digital teaching slides (P = 0.456). However, the trainees and teachers were not satisfied with the current physical teaching slide sets mainly due to faded staining (47.8 % of trainees and 28.6 % of faculty). In terms of digital platforms, the respondents preferred certain digital slide viewers because of image loading speed. Respondents preferred the digital slides with annotations and explanation of features (81.8 %), in addition to the final diagnoses (90.9 %). In conclusion, this study provides direction for tailoring digital resources for trainees and teachers at our centre, which may be extrapolated to academic medical centres nationally and regionally.

近年来，在新加坡的研究生病理学培训中，数字病理学工具的采用逐渐增加。在新加坡，学员和教师对数字病理学工具的使用和偏好迄今为止是未知的。因此，本观察性研究的目的是探讨学员和教师对采用数字病理工具进行病理教育的态度和看法，并指导机构决定开发和/或投资数字病理资源。向教员和学员分发了一份调查表。我们收到了23份学员的回复和10份教职员（“老师”）的回复。结果显示，受训者对物理和数字教学幻灯片的使用无显著差异（P = 0.456）。然而，学员和教师对现有的物理教学幻灯片不满意的主要原因是褪色（47.8%的学员和28.6%的教师）。在数字平台方面，由于图像加载速度快，受访者更倾向于使用某些数字幻灯片观看器。除了最终诊断（90.9%）外，受访者更喜欢带有注释和特征解释的数字幻灯片（81.8%）。总之，本研究为我们中心的学员和教师定制数字资源提供了方向，这可以外推到全国和地区的学术医疗中心。
