DPDx Monthly Case Studies and Archive
DPDx offers a monthly Parasitology Case Study Quiz by email. The purpose of this service is to provide distance training on morphologic diagnostic parasitology to professionals engaged in identifying parasites associated with human disease. On the third week of each month, two case studies are sent to subscribers via email as well as posted on the Monthly Case Studies page of the DPDx website. Within a week, subscribers should send their answers to DPDx at dpdx@cdc.gov in order to have a valid participation in this CDC training activity. The correct answers to the case studies are released the following week; they are sent by email as well as posted on the DPDx website. Feel free to contact the DPDx Team (dpdx@cdc.gov) if you have any questions regarding the DPDx Monthly Case Studies.

To join this mailing list, please send us your name, business affiliation and address, including phone number and email address.
