Department of Pathology

Research in the Department of Pathology is focused on the
study of disease, with an emphasis on human systems.
Modern pathology employs all areas of biomedical science
including molecular biology, genetics, and biochemistry to
address fundamental questions in biology as they relate to
pathology.
