About the talk:
Immediately after the Haitian earthquake, a pressing need to provide pathology diagnoses on cervical biopsies from patients in Leogane, Haiti arose. Over the past 3 years the need for this service has continued and has provided the opportunity to develop innovative telepathology solutions that are now the most advanced in the world.
