Our Society, The Wisconsin Society of Cytology was formed to further the cause of cytotechnology and to provide the means for persons engaged and interested in the field to meet and exchange ideas and information. Anyone interested in cytology, regardless of residency, is invited to become a member.
Three new promising positions in Cytotechnology!
Holiday Special Case #2
Answers will be accepted up until the new year. Good luck!
Fall Meeting Presentation. Spring Meeting Plans
We Are also Excited at the prospect of having our spring meeting coincide with the ASC/ASCP workgroup and the ACE program which is coming to Chicago on May 21-22, 2016. Members should have received an email on this subject. An official update is looming as to where we go with this. Stay tuned!
Interesting and Difficult Cases Series #1
What everyone has been waiting for since our Cytology bash in October, the monthly case study. Every month (or thereabouts) we will post an interesting case here on the blog, Twitter, and Facebook. Feel free to express your "opinions" and "comments" on our blog's comment section, in Facebook comments, or tweet them at us. Do not, however; think that comments are your final answers!
Your final answer must be emailed to our Webmaster (webmaster@wiscytology.org), or you can message our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/wiscytology
A winner will be selected from all of the correct answers of fully paid members and a system of ranking and reward will be developed as the months go by. Your answers will be kept 100% confidential, only winners will be announced publicly.
Without any further ado
Best of Luck to you all!
