Pathology Interest Group
Faculty Advisors:
Dr. Neha Dahiya
Our goals as an interest group are to help medical students explore the field of pathology, provide opportunities for pathology education at UACOM-P, and assist members in becoming competitive candidates for pathology residency.
Feel free to contact us for information about upcoming activities, exploring pathology, or getting involved! We love having visitors attend our events!
Through lunch talks, interactive lab tours, and pathology review sessions, we aim to help medical students at UACOM-P explore the field of pathology, gain opportunities for pathology education, and become competitive candidates for pathology residency.
