Events in 2022

The ASM will take place on Saturday 17 September 2022 at Guy’s Hospital, London.

The theme for the meeting is How to avoid the common pitfalls in cytopathology

1. Ideal preparation for the RCPath and IBMS examinations
2. Hands on, microscopy-based workshops facilitated by tutors

e-learning series of 5 GCMS and 9 GC training sessions covering key principles of gas chromatography and mass spectrometry.
The sessions include:
1. Introduction to Gas Chromatography (GC/GCMS)
2. Single and Triple quadrupole GCMS techniques
3. Operation, maintenance and troubleshooting
4. Hardware and consumables overview (columns, inlets, injection techniques, GC detecors)
5. Summary session giving an overview of key learning points
6. Data processing and method development

The training sessions are non-vendor specific and are suitable for people with range of experience as well as those with no previous GC/GCMS knowledge. These are fantastic resources for those interested in the benefits of using GC/GCMS as well as anyone who would like to expand their analytical knowledge.

e-learning series of 5 training sessions covering key principles of liquid chromatography.
The sessions include:
1. Introduction to Liquid Chromatography (LC/HPLC)
2. Types of LC and separation techniques
3. The compound separation process – how is it measured and improved
4. How to apply theory in practice
5. Summary session giving an overview of key learning points

The training sessions are suitable for people with range of experience as well as those with no previous LC knowledge. These are fantastic resources for those interested in the benefits of using LC as well as anyone who would like to expand their analytical knowledge.

In order to detect and identify amyloid, biopsy slides must be properly prepared, stained and examined. This requires precise technique, correct equipment and professional expertise, or amyloid deposits may be missed or incorrectly diagnosed. We will look at amyloid staining, correctly diagnosing amyloid in tissues and the associated laboratory techniques.

Two half-day virtual sessions via Zoom with interactive Q&A.
Full programme will be available on the RCPath and SHOT websites.

There are ongoing exciting developments in transfusion medicine and science with high quality research supporting evidence-based practice.
This symposium brings together experts from various clinical disciplines and also leaders in transfusion science to provide an update on key developments.
