2. Informatics

Learn about Informatics, digital & computational pathology at pathologyoutlines.com/informatics.html. Make sure to read our topic on Computational pathology fundamentals & applications, written by Yomna Amer, M.B.B.Ch. and Anil Parwani, M.D., Ph.D., M.B.A.

3. Potential PathologyOutlines.com App

We are considering setting up a free mobile app. It would resemble what is currently available when using the website on mobile but, at least initially, the topics would be limited to the most important sections and we would try to improve formatting. Email Nat@PathologyOutlines.com with any suggestions.

For mobile use of the website, there is no option to convert to the standard home page, header and footer. Our decision to have mobile pages conform to the screen size apparently eliminated that option. We have added more links to the “Other links” tab on our homepage so you should be able to access all important pages.
