Nupur is a PGY-4 resident at East Carolina University, Greenville, North Carolina and co-authored the book “Ace the Boards: Neoplastic Hematopathology.” Outside work, she enjoys playing basketball, wine tasting, and Zumba. She believes that the biggest challenge the field is currently facing is “generating interest in pathology as a career option among medical students. There has to be a paradigm shift in the way pathology is approached at the medical school level, and it needs to be projected as a patient-centric specialty, just like Internal Medicine or Surgery.”
