While I can't confirm or deny based on hearsay, but I heard he had a falling out with his previous academic department.

Is that a big news?

Yes, the field of lab medicine has changed forever.

I do think it is “a big news” or at least big news 🙂

sort of an FYI post but not everyday that a die hard academic, well known former chair, etc... leaves for a big corporate lab. Also notably he will be one of the highest ranking MDs in the company who is a pathologist and probably the highest who focuses on AP only & doesn’t have a mostly CP background.

Odd move IMO. But who knows what the story is.

I have heard UC is quite dysfunctional and even moreso now in COVID times...

Not too interesting to me. I don't get it

I can feel it in my plums.

He was at Emory then Cedars, I somehow thought he was at UCLA...Uropath guy.

I swear I have met him before, maybe CAP meeting when it was in BC Canada like forever ago.

Best "personality" pathologists in academia: Appelman at UMich, Larry Weiss now at Neo and Joe Chaffin. I love to be entertained at a conference, when those actually existed and those guys hit the mark. Maybe throw Marty Mihm in there from Harvard, Cotran of course. Gerry Berry at Stanford.

Appelman is legendary though.

Also, wasn't he the chief editor of AJCC staging manual 8th edn?
Uncommon honor for a pathologist I think

He hosts a dinner at USCAP every year for GU folks. It's a good time and he's an interesting guy.
