On Thursday, March 20th the National Institutes of Health, National Cancer Institute presented its Rising Scholars Lecture with pathology’s Dr. Abhijit Parolia, assistant professor of experimental pathology, entitled NSD2 is a requisite subunit of the AR/FOXA1 neo-enhanceosome in promoting prostate tumorigenesis.
One of the key qualities of expert pathologists is that they learn to expect the unexpected. In the Michigan Medicine Department of Pathology, our pathologists and collaborators recently reported on some of these unexpected findings.
In decades past, people often lived lifelong within a narrow geographic region and received healthcare from one institution. Today, our population is highly mobile. Individuals may receive healthcare from locations across the United States and globally. This causes significant safety issues for patients who need blood transfusions, especially those who are unable to relay their medical history.
The paths to pathology are as varied as the members taking them. Sometimes, the path is very direct—the student knows exactly what they want to do from childhood. Other times, the path is non-linear, as is the case with Dr. Daniel Hovelson, director of informatics in the Division of Diagnostic Genetics and Genomics (DGG) in the University of Michigan's Department of Pathology.
When one hears “Artificial Intelligence” – what comes to mind? For some, it may be Terminator-style beings or rogue artificial life forms. In Pathology, however, AI is bringing enhanced patient care and improved satisfaction to pathologists, patients, and clinicians alike. In a recent article in CAP Today, Michigan Medicine’s Department of Pathology was highlighted for its advanced digital pathology workflows.
