The standard of poster presentations was extremely high, making it very difficult to pick the winners. I particularly enjoyed the variety of talks - a mixture of case reports, audits and mini research projects. The future of pathology is in safe hands!
Our 8 brilliant poster presenters and 3 outstanding prize winners - look out for their presentations in ACPNews soon! Many thanks to @ACP_Pathologist for generously sponsoring the competition and to judges @matt83c and @ilovepathology #P2S24

I enjoyed doing the autopsy station - talking to 7 groups for 12 minutes each. Each group chose the instruments they wanted to know most about - almost all went for the saw, T-chisel and rib shears, with a couple picking the ladles and bowel scissors.
