    The division of Anatomic Pathology provides training in autopsy and surgical pathology, cytology, electron and fluorescence microscopy, immunohistochemistry and immunopathology, neuropathology, dermatopathology, and other specialty areas. Special training in forensic pathology is available. The Division of Clinical Pathology includes clinical chemistry, toxicology, hematology, blood banking, immunology, microbiology and virology, molecular diagnostics, cytogenetics, tissue typing, and flow cytometry.

    The program for each resident can be tailored to his or her interest and capabilities with special emphasis in any of the subspecialties desired. Administrative and managerial skills are included at all levels with the development of major responsibility in the final year.
