PaLM Grand Rounds September

Join us on Thursday, September 10, from 12:00 - 1:00 p.m., Virtual Session (Zoom Only), as Dr. Jason Wasserman, discusses “From Access to Understanding: Patient-Facing AI and the Future of the Pathology Report.”

Date: Thursday, September 10, 2026
Time: 12:00 – 1:00 p.m.
Location: Virtual Session (Zoom Only)

Learning objectives:

  1. Describe how patient access to pathology reports has evolved over the past decade and evaluate why
    access alone is insufficient to support comprehension, patient safety, and meaningful engagement.
  2. Explain the rationale, development process, and safety-focused customization behind Osler, a domain-constrained patient-facing pathology chatbot deployed on MyPathologyReport.com.
  3. Interpret early real-world engagement data from Osler — including the volume and types of patient questions — and identify the research and quality-assurance opportunities that patient-facing AI creates for pathology.
