ACMT announces the 27th Clinical Pathological Case (CPC) Presentation Competition in association with the 2025 North American Congress of Clinical Toxicology (NACCT).

ACMT invites you to submit challenging poisoning cases for the 26th CPC competition. Submissions should be prepared as unknown cases for another CPC participant to solve. In return, you will receive a similarly complex case to present a differential diagnosis, educate the audience, and, ideally, solve. An ACMT educational sub-committee will select the top three submissions for the competition.

We welcome submissions from outside Toxicology Fellowship programs. Cases can be submitted by any academic toxicology mentor/mentee team, provided the senior member (CPC Discussant) is an ACMT Member with an academic supervisory role. The senior member should be an Attending Physician in a Toxicology Fellowship or a related Residency program, while the junior member (CPC Presenter) can be a Fellow, Resident, or healthcare colleague. Junior members are often from Tox, EM, Peds, Occ Med, or Pharm, but can come from any specialty, as long as they are submitting a toxicology-related case with an ACMT Member.

For questions about the CPC or to determine if your case is a good fit, please contact Dr. Jeff Suchard at jsuchard@hs.uci.edu.
