- CAP leaders talk vision, future

CAP President Donald Karcher, MD, FCAP, and President-Elect Qihui "Jim" Zhai, MD, FCAP, are thinking about the current state of the CAP and the future of the organization.
They each spoke about their personal journeys, how their experiences shaped their careers, and the future of the CAP during interviews recorded for release at CAP25.
What they're saying: "One of the themes of my presidency was that we are all pathologists," said Dr. Karcher. "There are more things that unite us than the things that are different among the types of pathologists."

Incoming leadership: Dr. Zhai will assume the presidency in September.
"The reason we exist is to serve the members and to serve the professional community, and ultimately to serve the patient even better," said Dr. Zhai.
