About Marta Cohen

Marta is Head of the Department of Histopathology and Clinical Director of Pharmacy, Pathology, and Genetics at Sheffield Children’s Hospital. An Honorary Professor of the University of Sheffield since 2018, she was the first woman in the UK to be appointed a Professor in Pediatric Pathology – and the Royal College of Pathologists recently designated her Academic Lead for Pediatric and Perinatal Pathology. “I am forever grateful to my friend and mentor Roc Kaschula, who had an enormous influence on my career by inviting me to apply for a training position at Red Cross Children’s Hospital in Cape Town,” says Marta.
