Five one-year fellowships provide advanced experience in surgical pathology, with ACGME special selective accreditation.

A fellowship program combining immunopathology and surgical pathology is also available. The laboratory accessions approximately 30,000 surgical specimens a year.

Candidates demonstrating excellence in diagnostic skills, a firm commitment to teaching, and completion of a research project related to human disease may be eligible for the H. T. Enterline Fellowship Award.
