March 2018 Issue of The Pathologist

The March issue of The Pathologist dives into the realm of preanalytical variability and the extent of its effect on test results. This issue also investigates protein biomarkers for tracking Progeria, the evolution of at-home genetic testing kits, how to overcome healthcare cuts, pathologists becoming more connected, and much more. Additionally, we sit down with Carolyn Bertozzi to talk about her career in chemistry and the digital direction of pathology.
