Hear an expert discuss how Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) is utilizing
the oncoReveal® Nexus 21-gene panel to redefine turnaround time and actionable insights
in cancer care. Dr. Ewalt shares a perceptive look at the clinical need for rapid, front-line NGS sequencing, and how a unique, purpose built targeted NGS panel (Pillar Biosciences’ oncoReveal Nexus 21 gene Panel) was developed, validated and implemented clinically by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK-REACT) to complement their current comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) approach.

Pathologists are physicians who play a crucial role in patient care, providing accurate diagnoses and guiding treatment decisions. Despite often working behind the scenes, pathologists are essential to modern medicine, contributing to advancements in precision medicine and molecular diagnostics.
March 2026—International medical graduates are crucial to the American healthcare system, particularly in pathology, where they make up a significant portion of the workforce.
February 2026—The pathology community must embrace new technologies, such as digital pathology and AI, to avoid being left behind.
January 2026—The CAP president emphasizes the importance of inspiring others in the field of pathology. This can be achieved by encouraging new voices to join the field, engaging with medical students, and actively participating in the CAP.
December 2025—When this column comes out, it will be nearly the end of 2025. It’s a good time to think about the challenges we have been facing—and the opportunities we will have in the coming years to address them. The CAP is no stranger to challenges, and neither are its members. There’s a lot going on in the world and in the health care markets that directly affects what we do. I believe that if we face these challenges head-on, we can find ways to improve laboratory quality and our ability to care for patients, all while strengthening the CAP as an organization.
November 2025—Connecting with others is crucial for strengthening the pathology profession and improving patient care. This includes connecting with colleagues, patients, and other clinical partners to share ideas, resources, and expertise.
October 2025—For my inaugural column in CAP TODAY, I’d like to begin by saying thank you. Thank you, CAP members, for the honor of allowing me to serve as your president. Thanks to my mentors, peers, and colleagues for helping me along this path. And my deepest gratitude to my wife, Jenny, and my daughter, Jasmine, for the extraordinary journey that began in China and led to my own American dream in the U.S. and to Louisiana, where I practice.
September 2025—It’s hard to believe that my two-year term as president of the CAP is already at its end. By the time you read this column, Jim Zhai, MD, will have been sworn in as our new president at the CAP annual meeting in Orlando. Serving as CAP president has given me amazing opportunities that I’m sure I would never have experienced otherwise. Perhaps the most rewarding has been the chance to meet hundreds of pathologists in the U.S. and across the globe and to witness firsthand the great work they’re doing for our profession, for the CAP, and particularly for our patients. The worldwide community of pathologists is truly impressive.
August 2025—I’ve written in this column many times that pathologists should be leaders of the laboratory. But all of the leadership skills we develop through that role also make us a good fit for many other leadership positions in our health care institutions and beyond. I have met CAP members who are chief medical officers, chief quality officers, presidents of their medical staff, and even CEOs of hospitals and health care networks. The current commander of one of the largest military medical centers in the U.S. is a pathologist.
July 2025—Whether we’re in academic or private practice, hospital labs or independent labs, as pathologists we share a broad set of common responsibilities and challenges. But a select group of us has an additional set of considerations for how to practice because of who and where they serve. In this month’s column, I’d like to shine a light on military pathologists and pathologists who serve our veterans in the Veterans Affairs health system—all of whom are supporting the defense of our country.
