After finishing up my CPEP fellowship at UNC, I moved to the beach 🏝️! I am very excited to start my new position as the Molecular Microbiology Director at the Medical University of South Carolina.

Get to know your PASCV peers like Alberto "Beto" Paniz Mondolfi, MD, PhD.
2 are true and 1 is not:

1. He is heading up the Membership committee's campaign focusing on LatAm in 2026.
2. He hasn't attended a PASCV Annual Meeting.
3. He was a "smuggler" as part of his career path.

🦠 The results are in for December's Diagnostic Dilemma! From the looks of it, it was a TOUGH one! Most of you correctly chose Measles infection due to a secondary vaccine failure. Thanks for another great Dilemma from Dr. Logan Patterson!

Just published: The foundation for the microbiology laboratory’s essential role in diagnostic stewardship: an ASM Laboratory Practices Subcommittee report

In my opinion, a paper by the people, for the people, to support your role as a diagnostic steward!

Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza A H5N1 has been linked to several human cases in U.S. poultry and dairy workers. To understand its testing in the clinical laboratory, read the ASM and @APHL FAQ. #ASMClinMicro https://t.co/inpEhPoNBH

@biologist_nina Thanks Nina! 2 years older and maybe slightly wiser 😂

[Logan Patterson, PhD, D(ABMM) @LPattersonPhD]

It's my last day of CPEP at UNC!

I cannot believe how quickly the past two years have gone by. A huge thank you to Dr. Miller, Dr. Alby, the micro lab, and my co-fellows for making this such an incredible experience.

A special shout out to my wife for putting up with this 😂
