Our aim is to provide a supportive work environment in which each individual can excel and pursue avenues that lead to national and international recognition. We will accomplish this by developing mechanisms that make optimal use of our human and financial resources. Within this context the overall goals of our residency training program are to develop a pathologist with the following characteristics: • A pathologist capable of communicating as a medical consultant to other clinicians and to patients, as well as being capable of optimally directing the management of anatomic and clinical laboratory enterprises. The pathologist understands the science and technology of laboratory medicine and assures the quality, clinical appropriateness, and usefulness of the data produced by that laboratory. The pathologist is a clinician first and foremost. • A pathologist who has the skills to recognize, interpret, and communicate pathologic processes in the clinical practice of anatomic pathology. • A pathologist who understands and consults on methods of diagnostic test development, test utilization in the context of both generally applicable as well as patient-specific clinical settings, and assay interpretation in the acute and chronic clinical management of patients. These activities include the pathologist’s role in the development and implementation of integrated medical informatics that optimize patient care. • A pathologist who has the skills to consult in these areas at the broader systems level, and in the various extant healthcare delivery models. • A pathologist who understands the role of research, in its broadest definition, in clinical decision- making, test development, knowledge generation, and continuing education. To accomplish these goals, our program offers a flexible but educationally intensive training program in Anatomic Pathology (AP) and Clinical Pathology (CP, Laboratory Medicine) in order to prepare each of our residents for certification by the American Board of Pathology. A core program provides training that will lead to basic competence in general pathology. Elective opportunities are offered to permit the development of specialty excellence in particular subspecialty
