Inside Pathology Magazine

Our annual magazine is distributed within the department and sent to alumni and friends of Pathology. Initiated by Dr. Kathleen Cho during her interim as Chair, it was first published in 2014 as a way to allow members to become familiar with the research and changes happening within the Department of Pathology. Inside Pathology is also used as a vehicle to get to know some of the department's faculty and highlight the impact made by our staff. Check out the latest edition of the magazine here.

 

Annual Report

Each year the Annual Report is published, highlighting the prior year’s work in the Department. This report memorializes the achievements of our faculty, trainees, and staff for historical purposes and is used in our faculty recruitment efforts. Each division of the department is highlighted in a full-color, attractive report format. You can find copies of all of the Department’s Annual Reports here.

 

Submit News

It is our goal to make sure that all members of the department, faculty and staff alike, receive recognition for their achievements. We also want to make sure we keep abreast of the changes and breakthroughs in research that are happening within its walls. That's why we count on our members to inform us when they hear of them. In everything from personal achievements to research publications, you are encouraged to submit your stories.
