Pathology Residency
About Our Pathology Residency Program
The Department of Pathology at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC), a major teaching hospital of Harvard Medical School, is committed to providing state-of-the-art training to prepare physicians for leadership roles in pathology and academic medicine. We offer four resident training pathways: First, our combined anatomic pathology/clinical pathology (AP/CP) pathway provides comprehensive training in all areas of tissue diagnostics and laboratory medicine. Second, our AP-only pathway prepares residents for careers as academic surgical pathologists. Third, our CP only pathway prepares residents for careers as future leaders in laboratory medicine. Finally, our AP/Neuropathology (AP/NP) track combines two years of general AP training with 2 years of neuropathology fellowship. All pathways include extensive opportunities to participate in research projects with world-renowned experts in pathology or related disciplines.
