Expertise in this area is available as is the potential for research activities. Clinical and experimental possibilities exist in other aspects of Pediatric Pathology as well, e.g., in the field of hepatobiliary diseases.
Collaborative activities exist in cardiovascular pathology - diagnostic and experimental.
These include the interpretation of endomyocardial biopsies, heart transplantation, and experimental studies of myocardial ischemia and reperfusion. Potential and existing efforts in medical education exist at all levels, including some which lend themselves to investigative activities. These include the use of computer-assisted teaching and evaluation and the possible role of Pathology in the evolving Primary Care curriculum at the School of Medicine 4 . Anticipating the future requires an understanding of the past. Activities in the history of Medicine include that of Colorado and the American West, child health care, and of Pathology, especially Pediatric Pathology.
