Nov. 12, 2026 – The American Board of Pathology (ABPath) is currently accepting nominations for the Diplomate Advisory Committee (DAC). Board-certified pathologists in community practice are especially encouraged to apply.

The Diplomate Advisory Committee advises the ABPath Board of Trustees for continuous evaluation and improvement of certification, Continuing Certification and other ABPath programs and initiatives from a diplomate’s perspective. It consists of 12 volunteer diplomates with a range of backgrounds, specialties, and professional experience. An ABPath Trustee chairs the committee, and members serve three-year terms.

The committee meets virtually once a quarter for one hour. Committee members may occasionally be asked to review materials in advance of meetings for feedback purposes.

If you are interested in serving, please complete the Diplomate Advisory Committee Interest Form and upload your CV no later than January 7, 2027.
