Bi-Weekly Neuropathology Journal Club
Fridays, 9-10 AM, NP Library (Room A552 PUH)
This conference will meet twice a month on Friday from 9 to 10 AM in the NP Library (Room A552 PUH). During the week before, conference participants should email to Karen (weberkm@upmc.edu) the pdf files of interesting clinical or research articles. Karen will post these to this web site and alert everyone to the conference in her weekly mailings. Submitters should indicate to Karen if they want to present a particular article or whether they are submitting it just to alert attendees to the article's existence. Article presentations are limited to 20 minutes followed by up to 10 minutes of discussion. Obviously the whole article cannot be presented in that time so the presenter must be efficient and selective in choosing what to show.

The conference is open to faculty, fellows, residents and students. Please email Karen if you would like to be included in the distribution list.
