This session explores the evolving role of RAS in precision oncology, from the biology of RAS mutations to the expanding landscape of targeted therapies. Through expert presentations, real-world case discussions, and interactive audience polling, participants will examine best practices for RAS biomarker testing across solid tumors, including lung, colorectal, and pancreatic cancers. The session will highlight practical considerations for tissue and liquid biopsy, strategies to address testing gaps, and the importance of multidisciplinary collaboration to ensure timely identification of patients who may benefit from RAS-targeted therapies.

June 2026—Studies of genetic variants in autism spectrum disorders have identified copy-number variants and single-nucleotide variants in more than 100 autism spectrum disorder-associated genes. However, much of the genetic and neurobiological bases of such disorders are still unclear. Some of the yet unexplained genetic basis of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) may lie in variants that may be difficult to detect by short-read whole genome sequencing (SR-WGS), such as specific structural variants and tandem repeats.

June 2026—As the scope and scale of information technology available to the pathology laboratory balloons, so too do the number of proposals for lab IT projects, products, and partnerships. And those pitching such proposals can up their odds of success if they avoid using technical jargon, acronyms, and other IT speak when explaining such endeavors to an audience without expertise in those areas, says communications expert Terry Rubin.

Put It on the Board

June 2026—The blood bank community, state pathology societies, and the CAP and Association for the Advancement of Blood and Biotherapies are working to oppose state bills that mandate directed and autologous blood donations. Most such proposals have failed, but Idaho’s law was enacted on March 16. It will go into effect July 1.

From the President’s Desk

May 2026—The CAP recently reached a record high of over 20,000 members, strengthening its advocacy efforts. Through PathPAC, the CAP engages with federal policymakers to advocate for pathologists and patient care. The CAP also advocates for the pathology community through its involvement with the AMA.

Q&A column

May 2026
Q. When we receive new immunohistochemistry antibodies or DAB kits, they undergo a quality control process. Every institution where I have worked has done this task a little differently. When a laboratory receives a new antibody, what is the correct QC process? What if we receive two units of the same antibody from the same lot but one came in on Thursday and one on Friday? Read answer.
