Chinese American Pathologist Association

The primary mission of the CAPA is to improve and enhance the educational opportunities and professional skills of practicing pathologists of Chinese origin, by popularizing communication, friendship and cultural exchange, and by accelerating the science and practice of pathology and laboratory medicine. The organization was originally established in March, 2003, in Washington, D.C, as the name Hua Tuo Society of Pathology (HTSP). IN February 2006, the name was later alternated to Chinese American Pathologists Association (CAPA), in Atlanta during annual meeting of the United States and Canadian Academy of Pathology. There is one committee under which 10 other sub-committee and departments are present like education committee, finance committee etc.
