UNIVERSITY of NEW MEXICO AFFILIATED HOSPITALS Albuquerque, NM UNIVERSITY OF NEW MEXICO AFFILIATED HOSPITALS Albuquerque, NM PROGRAMS OFFERED The Department of Pathology [http://pathology.unm.edu] is committed in equal measure to education, patient care, and scholarly investigation, in order to prepare physicians for diverse career opportunities. We offer a four- year program of combined training in anatomic and clinical pathology. Anatomic pathology training includes extensive exposure to general surgical pathology, cytology, autopsy and forensic pathology, and immunohistology. Clinical pathology training is supported by TriCore Reference Laboratories (TriCore), which is a large regional laboratory serving the UNM Health System, the Presbyterian Healthcare System, community hospitals, and clients throughout the state and surrounding areas. Excellent training is offered for the resident, under the supervision of the faculty, in all aspects of pathology with a focus on patient care and the consulting role of the pathologist to both primary care and specialty clinicians. The Department is on the cutting edge in many areas of scientific investigation; support is provided for those residents who wish to pursue research studies. Advanced fellowship subspecialty training is offered in multiple fields. Please visit our website at: [http://pathology.unm.edu]. TYPES AND NUMBERS OF APPOINTMENTS The current house staff includes 16 residents, as well as fellows in hematopathology (4), forensic pathology (4), molecular genetic pathology (2), transfusion medicine (1), surgical pathology (1), cytopathology (1), and 2 post- sophomore fellows. Four first year residency positions are available each year. FACILITIES The University of New Mexico Hospital and the New Mexico Veteran's Administration Medical Center are the primary teaching hospitals used by the University of New Mexico Health Sciences Center. Additional rotations at Presbyterian Hospital and at the Office of the Medical Investigator provide the resident with a total of 70,000 surgical pathology specimens; 70,000 cytopathology specimens; 1,000 bone marrows; 2,300 forensic autopsies; and 70 hospital autopsies per year. TriCore performs more than 12 million routine and esoteric laboratory tests annually. Faculty of the Department of Pathology participate in many research programs offering excellent opportunities for residents. Pathology faculty are principal investigators of several NIH sponsored centers and programs including the Cancer Center and multiple projects within the Clinical and Translational Research Center, the UNM Center for Molecular Discovery, the Human Tissue Repository, and the UNM Interdisciplinary HPV Prevention Center [http://pathology.unm.edu]. Faculty also lead sponsored projects within the Center for Infectious Disease and Immunity. COMMUNITY Albuquerque is frequently mentioned as one of the most desirable urban communities in the United States. Albuquerque serves as a center of education, commerce, film production, and tourism for the mountain Southwest. The city's high desert location affords it a moderate climate with plentiful sunshine and mild temperatures year- round. Opportunities for outdoor activities abound, and New Mexico's natural beauty and cultural amenities draw visitors from around the world. STIPENDS AND MAINTENANCE 2021 salaries will be comparable to 2020 salaries, which began at $53,898. Malpractice insurance, paid vacation, sick leave and health insurance are provided. Generous funds for educational resources and travel are provided. Good housing is readily available.

  • Findings, September 2002
    INDINGS FNational Institutes of Health September 2002 National Institute of General Medical Sciences inside Baldomero Olivera Secrets of the Killer Snails 2 Elaine Bearer Cells in Motion 8 Edited by Alison Davis under contract 263-MD-20519 Produced by the Office of Communications and Public Liaison National Institute of General Medical Sciences National Institutes of Health On the Cover Photo of Baldomero Olivera: Kerry Matz Photo of Elaine Bearer: John Forasté Editor’s Note Getting together. More than ever, that’s what science is all about. If you think being a scientist means being lonely, you’re wrong! Researchers spend most of their days working with other people. Biomedical scientists at colleges and universities spend up to half of their time teaching some area of biology or chemistry to undergraduate and graduate students. And scientists continually work with students to help turn neat ideas into testable research projects and to sort through the results of an experiment. But biomedical researchers also do a lot of talking to other scientists, and not just biologists. As biology research broadens to include new fields like computer science, physics, and engineering, thinking together about how to attack a problem in an unconventional way can be the most fertile ground for discovery. In assembling the materials for this issue of Findings, the importance of cooperation between scientists became undeniably apparent. Upon asking researchers to review the words about their work, these hard-working women and men insisted on giving credit wherever possible to their students and coworkers—all the people who sit at the benches in their labs and do experiments day in and out.

I am proud of the work we have done to achieve this great honor and in awe of our faculty who have made this accomplishment possible, by receiving a large number of federal awards for their research. Of course, as much as we love to have well-funded research programs, it is the science that really matters, and as you will see across the following pages, we have made great strides in so many different areas, from neural circuits and genomics, to imaging and Alzheimer’s. I am proud of the work we are doing and happy to be recognized for it. In addition to awards received, we welcomed a number of visitors and speakers who came to the Zilkha Neurogenetic Institute, some to share their cutting-edge research, others to learn of the advances we have made.
