Mission Statement
The
Department of Pathology is committed to excellence in
patient care, education, and translational and basic
research, and plays a vital and integral role in the
medical center’s multifaceted missions. Through
provision of high quality diagnostic services and the
practice of laboratory medicine, the Department supports
the wide range of medical care provided at the
institution. Training and developing the next
generation of healthcare providers, biomedical
scientists, and our workforce is given high priority
through the creation of educational experiences that
introduce recent advances in medical and scientific
knowledge into learning, and employ modern instructional
techniques. Discovery and application of new
information and technologies is fostered by an
environment that encourages analytical thought and
investigation, laboratory facilities that provide
technical expertise to support research, and a wealth of
clinical materials that form a rich substrate for
translational investigations. In each component of its
mission, the Department strives to create an atmosphere
that promotes professional development and personal
growth.
