IAP Singapore
Singapore Division of the International Academy of Pathology
The Singapore Division of the International Academy of Pathology (SGIAP), also known as the Association of Pathologists - Singapore, has, since its formation in 2015, been actively promoting continuing education in pathology with an emphasis on countries in the ASEAN region.
Like the main IAP, central, the Singapore Division hopes to be able to provide a forum for the global advancement of pathology, including discussion and critical evaluation of scientific advances whilst not forgetting the humble daily hematoxylin and eosin stained slides and the Giemsa stained smears.
We strive to bring educational seminars and slide workshops to neighbouring countries on a regular basis, sharing knowledge and experience in this culturally diverse region. We also organise webinars aiming not only to maintain contact but also to foster communication and opportunities for our younger pathologists to network with an international faculty.
CPD/CME
Each masterclass is approved by the Royal College of Pathologists (8 CPD points). Approval is pending from the Singapore Medical Council (4 CME points).
• ALL registered attendees will receive a Certificate of Participation
