Residents interested in academic careers have ample opportunity and resources to pursue their goals within our department and in other departments as well. The organization of the residency includes at least two exposures to each clinical pathology area. In the first rotation the resident is expected to learn the basics of the field. In the second rotation, the resident is given greater responsibility for the day to day operations of the laboratory and is also responsible for function as clinical consultant under the supervision of the rotation director. In anatomic pathology, the resident has numerous rotations to acquire basic competence in cutting in and signing out cases and then in later rotations is given responsibility for signout with senior staff consultation.
Some residents choose to spend additional time in some areas as electives.
