About Christina Arnold

Quotes from Christina Arnold

On her career choice:

“To know pathology is to love pathology. Going to work is like going to an art museum every day—the beautiful colors and pictures and patterns hold the diagnosis and only pathologists can decode the message.”

On the benefits of social media:

“I would never have guessed that my phone would play such a dominant role in my career,” she says. “Social media provides instant connectivity with the world and helps me feel supported, engaged, and surrounded by all the good that is in pathology. It has also bestowed profound opportunities that I would not have had access to without developing a presence on social media, such as invited lectures, leadership roles, research collaborations, and more.”

On mentorship:

“These times call on us individually and collectively to rethink our role in the world and how we can be better humans. We must call out injustices and uplift the voices of those who have been discriminated against by centuries of institutional racism.”
