The UBC David F. Hardwick Pathology Learning
Centre (DHPLC) is a unique educational resource
for learning about the causes and mechanisms
of human disease, and for studying clinicopathologic
correlations.
The Learning Centre is physically located
on the second floor of the Diamond Health
Care Centre in Vancouver and houses The
William Boyd Museum of Pathology, The
Thurlbeck Collection of pulmonary pathology
(coming soon), a small library, and a study
space. The Learning Centre also contains
networked computer terminals for access to
the Virtual Collections.
The virtual component to the Learning Centre
includes The
Virtual Collections, , as well as
teaching cases for medical students and postgraduate
trainees. Courses for continuing medical
education are in development. The complete
content of the Learning Centre website can
be accessed from networked computers at each
of the Learning Centre’s Satellite
Sites, while an abbreviated version
is available to the general public (Link).
