Have you heard about The Pathology Grand Tour? We’ve just wrapped up our whirlwind audio tour of pathology and laboratory medicine, with 12 stops at major disciplines within the field. Ever wanted an inside look at the world of clinical chemistry? Curious about the work of pediatric pathologists? Want to explore a day in the life of an expert in blood diseases or genetic disorders? The Pathology Grand Tour does all that and more!
Which stop will you visit first?
Microbiology
Hear Bobbi Pritt and Elaine Cloutman-Green talk about their lives, their work, how to engage the public in healthcare initiatives, and how COVID-19 has affected their discipline.
Pathologists’ Assistants
Michael Desimone and Dennis Strenk walk us through the gross room and give us a birds’-eye view of the PA’s role in the pathology laboratory.
Forensic Pathology
Intrigued by forensics? Marianne Hamel and Nicole Jackson tell us some of their most interesting stories and debunk common misconceptions about their work.
Immunology and Infectious Disease
The spotlight is on these disciplines – but how familiar are you with them? Céline Gounder and Michael Shurin discuss how immunity and infectious disease interact and what changes recent events have wrought in their fields.
Veterinary Pathology
Not every pathology patient is human. Nicola Parry and Chiara Palmieri share the skills they think are important for this unique discipline and take a look at its future.
Histopathology
In Part 1, we hear from dermatopathology and pulmonary pathology as Rajendra Singh and Melanie Bois explore the scope of histopathology and compare and contrast their subspecialties.
Part 2 brings in renal pathology and oral and maxillofacial pathology with appearances from Mei Lin Bissonnette and Hayley Pincott, who also look at the changing face of modern pathology.
Pediatric and Perinatal Pathology
What makes this discipline special? Oscar Lopez-Nuñez and Miguel Reyes-Mugica describe the intricacies of their work – and why they think becoming parents has changed their outlook on it.
Clinical Chemistry and Biomedical Science
Listen to Leanne O’Connor and Gareth McKeeman talk us through the ins and outs of laboratory science and how their work differs from that of anatomic pathologists.
Hematopathology
Dive into the science of blood! Hematopathologists Akanksha Gupta and Rashmi Kanagal-Shamanna share their discipline’s unique aspects and the difference they make in patients’ lives.
Molecular Pathology
Pathology’s future is molecular, and Ann Moyer and Manuel Salto-Tellez are here to introduce their peers and colleagues to the work they do – and why it matters.
Cytopathology
Curious about cells? Eva Wojcik and Dana Razzano tell us about cytopathology, COVID-19, and where they think their discipline (and pathology as a whole) is headed.
