April 2018 Issue of The Pathologist

The April issue of The Pathologist features a tour of Great Ormond Street Hospital, one of the most prominent pediatric hospitals in the world. We speak with people across various departments to find out how the hospital stays on top of the plethora of patient samples they take in. We also look into progeria biomarkers, infrared biopsy grading. This issue also dives into histopathology training in Sudan, the power of DNA methylation, and medical career path differences between Pakistan and the UK. And this month we sit down with Sarah Coupland, Professor of pathology at the University of Liverpool.
