I haven’t seen a #pathsky starter pack yet! I’ve tried to keep up with all of the new pathologists joining, but I know I have missed many! Please tag yourselves/others below and I will follow them and add them 😁 @kmirza.bsky.social @clilleymd.bsky.social @brettkurpiel.bsky.social go.bsky.app/6bWDSjT
