Watch Lisa-Jean Clifford’s Interview with Dr. Marilyn Bui
Marilyn Bui, MD, PhD
Moffitt Cancer Center, AP Specialty
Session Highlights:
“When people purchase The Healing Art of Pathology book from the CAP, the hope is that people will read it, be inspired by it, then share it with or pass it on to others. The making of this book made me a better pathologist -patient centered, mindful, grateful, and burn-out resistance. I hope you will also be benefited from the magnificent power of The Healing Art of Pathology and live a positive and gratifying life.”
“The Healing Art of Pathology shows that when we connect with our patients – a bigger purpose other than ourselves – our work as pathologists will be transformed from a job to a way of living. What a privilege, honor, and joy to be a pathologist. It is one of the unique professions that has boundless opportunities to combine science, art, creativity, and humanity with the intent of lightening our burdens of life.”
“Pathology and Laboratory Medicine (PLM) is the central nervous system (CNS) to health care, very much like the CNS of a human. For PLM to remain the enabler of quality and efficient patient care, pathologists must embrace molecular pathology, digital pathology and AI.”
“For the next generation of pathologists, your job will be more complicated and harder as the precision medicine advances. Please be aware that pathologists augmented with molecular pathology and pathology informatics will be better prepared for the future.”
“I agree with Dr. Michael Becich that we should challenge the younger generation to build the ‘diagnostic cockpit’ that makes pathologists ‘knowledge engineers’ – the critical CNS part of the care team – to influence and have impact on patient care and patient outcomes. Although there is no one silver bullet, leadership matters. We challenge the ones who are in leadership positions to understand today’s pathology and how it must be powered by digital pathology and pathology informatics. We encourage everyone to be the catalyst for change and facilitator for collaboration to move the field of modern pathology forward.”
