Diagnostic Slide Session of the Virtual 96^th AANP Annual Meeting:
Eleven cases were presented with full discussion. The slides and clinical protocols are available online at this link.

This year, 5 of the 11 cases, which were presented on Saturday, June 13th, at the Virtual Annual Meeting of the American Association of Neuropathologists, had sufficient tissue to prepare glass slides for the “glass slide boxes”. The deadline to order a glass slide box has passed. 

Looking forward to seeing all of you in 2021 at the DSS in St. Louis!
