Dear Colleagues:
Thanks for your interest in the project. Here's a list of members who have agreed to participate:
Embryology - Donald Lowrie, David Bolender, Robert Klein, Padmanabhan Rengaswamy, Geoff Guttmann, Lisa Lee, John Cork, John Fredieu
Histology - Donald Lowrie, Robert Klein, Raj Ettarh, Lisa Lee
To me, these are decent sized working groups - both qualitatively and quantitatively. Here's what I plan to do next - if you agree, I would compile and edit our inputs into two final documents (broad categories for competency), one each for Histology and Embryology, by end of Thursday. You can look over these during the next few days (Friday - Sunday) for necessary revision and assign yourself at least one broad category you would like to work with. If we have a consensus by early next week, we could start pouring session objectives tied to our broad categories.
Please let me know your thoughts on these. I have members emailing and inboxing me as well - I would be more than glad to answer any question you might have regarding this.
Thanks again,
Manas
P.S. - Please try and have your inputs regarding broad categories in by Thursday - we can still edit these later while writing session objectives, but it would be nice if we didn't have to.
