Rodney E. Rohde
Rodney is Regents’ Professor at Texas State University System and Associate Director at Translational Health Research Initiative (@txst_THR). He has demonstrated passionate and consistent advocacy for lab medicine and creatively uses multiple platforms for spreading the message, including peer-reviewed publications, radio shows, podcasts, blogs, presentations at international and national meetings, and TEDx talks. He believes the field’s biggest breakthrough has been “the explosion of medical laboratory professionals and pathologists rising to the challenge to become global science communicators via social media and other forms of traditional media” – and is excited to join in the effort to raise the lab’s profile.
