Residency Programs
OverviewThe Department’s Residency Training Program in Pathology and Laboratory Medicine is one of the preeminent ones nationwide, standing out as a leading “fully integrated” program with balanced strengths in all four main arenas of modern academic pathology – Anatomic Pathology, Laboratory Medicine, Transfusion Medicine, and Experimental Pathology.
HighlightsThe Program’s reputation as one which consistently produces pathologists with outstanding combined clinical and academic skills has been reinforced recently as these representative accomplishments suggest:
- In the last six classes of residents completing training, 40 of 47 (85%) have obtained academic faculty positions.
- A number of these individuals have been retained within the Department at Penn and at The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, while a comparable number have accepted faculty positions in other prestigious departments across the country, including Johns Hopkins, Washington University and Harvard Medical School.
- In this same time period, 35 of 47 residents (74%) have pursued sub-specialty fellowship training at Penn and other prominent institutions, in areas such as surgical pathology, dermatopathology, cytopathology, hematopathology, and transfusion medicine.
