Clinical Fellowships
The Department of Pathology has been accredited for two new clinical fellowships:
Hematopathology
One fellowship position in an ACGME-accredited program offers
experience in hematopathology, emphasizing diagnostic hematopathology and
laboratory hematology. Three board-certified hematopathologists are
enthusiastically engaged in teaching the trainee in all areas of
hematopathology. The program includes training in peripheral blood and
bone marrow morphology interpretation, lymph node pathology, laboratory
pathology, coagulation, flow cytometry, cytogenetics and molecular
pathology. The trainee is exposed to a very active bone marrow
transplantation service. The trainee will have the opportunity to teach
residents and medical students as well as to participate in
translational research.

Selective Pathology (Surgical Pathology)
2012 and 2013 Selective Pathology Fellowship positions have been filled
Two one-year fellowship positions in an ACGME-accredited program will
provide an intensive experience in general surgical pathology and
subspecialties including breast, GYN, GI, pulmonary, renal,
neuropathology and placental pathology. The fellows will become familiar
with the innovative use of technology to improve work flow and the
significance of quality assurance and improvement within surgical
pathology. The service includes approximately 22,000 cases per year,
encompassing a wide variety of organ systems and subspecialties. Fellows
are involved in the performance and interpretation of frozen sections,
supervision of the gross room, sign out of cases and participation in
translational research. They will have the opportunity to teach
residents and medical students, and to conduct presentations at
conferences as well.
