Brooke Howitt
The Power List 2021 – In the Wings
Brooke is a rising star in gynecologic pathology. She is Associate Professor of Pathology at Stanford University School of Medicine and, though still relatively early in her career, has already published over 100 manuscripts that have extensively influenced the field, has contributed to major consensus papers, and has been invited to speak at major professional society meetings. When asked what she would be if she hadn’t become a laboratory professional, she says, “I used to say I’d run a goat farm and make artisanal goat cheeses, but after realizing what this entails, I think alpacas might be a better option.”
