Social Media Committee

The Social Media committee initiates discussions, as well as supports and expands the reach of existing discussions around pathology and laboratory medicine via social media platforms. Additionally, the Social Media Committee elevates the visibility of both ASCP and the professions of pathology and laboratory medicine, engaging members, non-members, students, and industry professionals.

Committee members must have an active social media presence on at least one or more platforms (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, etc.). Committee members also develop social media training for other ASCP committee members, social media best practices for volunteers, and amplify ASCP’s social media posts by sharing, reposting, etc.

Time Commitment

The Committee meets quarterly via a virtual platform. Additional workgroup meetings or adhoc meetings are scheduled as-needed.
