CONTINUING MEDICAL EDUCATION (CME)

This activity (“Association for Molecular Pathology 2008 Annual Meeting”) has been planned and
implemented in accordance with the Essential Areas and policies of the Accreditation Council for
Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) through the joint sponsorship of the Federation of American
Societies for Experimental Biology (FASEB), the American Society for Investigative Pathology (ASIP)
and the Association for Molecular Pathology (AMP). FASEB is accredited by the ACCME to provide
continuing medical education for physicians.
FASEB designates this educational activity (“AMP 2008 Annual Meeting”) for a maximum of 30 AMA
PRA Category 1 Credit(s)™ (includes 5.5 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)™ for the optional
“Community Pathology Outreach Program”) . Physicians should only claim credit commensurate with
the extent of their participation in the activity.

CME application forms are available online (www.amp.org) beginning October 29, 2008. Should you
have questions, contact the FASEB Office of Scientific Meetings and Conferences (301-634-7010;
email fasebcme@faseb.org) or the AMP Administrative Office (301-634-7939; email amp@asip.org),
9650 Rockville Pike, Bethesda, MD 20814. For the purposes of Continuing Medical Education credits
toward the American Medical Association Physician's Recognition Award, the Community Pathology
Outreach Program is presented as an optional component of the 2008 AMP Annual Meeting
(http://www.amp.org/2008/indexco.htm) and is jointly sponsored by FASEB, ASIP, and AMP.

Registrants of the 2008 AMP Annual Meeting must register separately for the Community Pathology
Outreach Program to participate in the latter educational activity. Registrants of the Community
Pathology Outreach Program must register separately for the 2008 AMP Annual Meeting to participate
in the latter educational activity.

Meeting Objective/Target Audience

The objective of the “AMP 2008 Annual Meeting” is to provide a forum for the exchange of new
research by scientists and investigators and to facilitate knowledge acquisition regarding issues and
challenges related to care and prevention. At the completion of this activity, participants should be
able to: 1) discuss the research underway and/or current diagnostic approaches to molecular
hematopathology (including clonality, translocations, and point mutations), the molecular testing of
tumors in anatomic pathology, molecular techniques that aid in resolving diagnostic dilemmas in
infectious diseases, and molecular genetic testing of inherited diseases; 2) demonstrate a gained level
of knowledge of the methods and techniques being used by researchers and practitioners; and 3)
utilize information and data that lead to improvements in human health. The AMP 2008 Annual
Meeting is especially targeted to clinical practitioners, research scientists, medical education
professionals, and students and postdoctoral fellows with an interest in gaining a basic and/or
advanced understanding of diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic approaches in the areas of
hematopathology (leukemias, lymphomas, lymphoproliferative disorders), solid tumors and soft tissue
tumors, infectious diseases (viral, bacterial, fungal, parasitic), and inherited diseases, with the goal of
improving patient care and enabling constructive interactions with pathologists, other health care
practitioners, and laboratory directors and technologists. The “Community Pathology Outreach
Program” is an optional component of the AMP 2008 Annual Meeting and is targeted to clinical
practitioners, research scientists, and medical education professionals who have little experience with
molecular diagnostic testing and who have an interest in gaining a basic understanding of molecular
pathology to enable constructive interactions with molecular diagnosticians to improve patient care.

Disclosure Policy

The Federation requires that audiences at FASEB-sponsored educational programs be informed of a
presenter's (speaker, faculty, author, or contributor) academic and professional affiliation, and the
existence of any relevant financial relationship a presenter has with any proprietary entity producing
health care goods or services consumed by, or used on patients, with the exemption of non-profit or
government organizations and non-health care related companies. The intent of this disclosure is not
to prevent a speaker from making a presentation. This policy allows the listener/attendee to be fully
knowledgeable in evaluating the information being presented. When an unlabeled use of a
commercial product, or an investigational use not yet approved for any purpose is discussed during the
presentation, it is required that presenters disclose that the product is not labeled for the use under
discussion or that the product is still investigational.

Disclosure includes any relationship that may bias one's presentation or which, if known, could give
the perception of bias. These situations may include, but are not limited to: 1) stock options or bond
holdings in a for-profit corporation or self-directed pension plan; 2) research grants; 3) employment (full
or part-time); 4) ownership or partnership; 5) consulting fees or other remuneration; 6) nonremunerative
positions of influence such as officer, board member, trustee, or public spokesperson; 7)
receipt of royalties; 8) speaker's bureau; 9) other. For full-time employees of industry or government,
the affiliation listed in the Program will constitute full disclosure.

The following presenters have indicated a relationship which, in the context of their presentation, could
be perceived by some as a real or apparent conflict of interest but do not consider that it will influence
their presentation. The disclosures have been reviewed and conflicts of interest resolved or managed.
The number following each company name represents the specific relationship from the list above.

Disclosure information is printed exactly as submitted by the presenter. If a presenter is not listed, then
he/she had no relationship to disclose.
