Resident Life

Join our healthcare community.

As a resident in the Pathology program, you are able to take an active role in the healthcare system, especially by presenting at the numerous multidisciplinary tumor board conferences held every week. This allows you to be a part of the patient’s care and also facilitates great interaction with other specialties and physicians within the healthcare system.
