Dr. John S. J. Brooks, ASCP's president is featured in the March 30 Medscape "videotorial"—a regular online video commentary by leaders in the American medical community.

Medscape, the largest online and peer reviewed, source of medical news regularly asks health care leaders to comment on issues of importance to the broad community of medicine as seen from the perspective of the "videotorialist." Dr. LoAnn Peterson was the first ASCP President to appear in a Medscape "videotorial" speaking about the impact of the laboratory shortage. Dr. Brooks, in his commentary, alerts the medical community to the impact of HIV/AIDS in Africa (and elsewhere in the world) and ASCP's role in bringing information and training to laboratory professionals fighting the scourge of HIV/AIDS. This year, ASCP's HIV/AIDS initiatives will be conducted in 10 countries in Africa and South America.
