Pathology and Laboratory
Welcome to the Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine.
Access to timely and accurate diagnoses and laboratory test results is critical for the vast majority of key clinical decisions made in caring for our patients. At the same time, investigative approaches within the Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine seek to further define our understanding of disease processes, paving the way for therapeutic interventions. The department thus occupies a unique position at the interface of clinical care and investigative activity. This allows us to contribute in a truly meaningful manner to translational research. The Department embraces the tripartite mission of Penn State Health and Penn State College of Medicine in that clinical service, education and research are essential components of our activities.
