Pathology

Department of Pathology – The University of Toledo

Welcome to Our Program

Pathology sits at the crossroads of basic science and clinical practice. It’s the bridge between the laboratory and the clinic, where discoveries in basic science are translated into life-changing diagnoses, and where clinical questions spark new research. At the University of Toledo, we train pathologists who are both skilled diagnosticians and curious scientists, ready to advance medicine in every setting.

Our Philosophy
