Clinical Pathology Residency The Section of Clinical Pathology in the Department of Population Medicine and Diagnostic Sciences at Cornell University has a vacancy for a resident in Veterinary Clinical Pathology starting July 1, 2016. This residency program provides 3 years of specialty training in clinical pathology under the guidance of three board-certified faculty. The objectives of the program are to produce outstanding clinical pathologists who are well-prepared for a career in Veterinary Clinical Pathology, to encourage trainees to become academic clinical pathologists, and to prepare candidates for certification by the American College of Veterinary Pathologists. Training will emphasize principles of pathophysiology and mechanisms of disease, interpretation of laboratory data, development of analytical and diagnostic skills, critical journal review, and principles and techniques of laboratory methods. Our residents rotate through relevant sections of the clinical pathology, anatomic pathology, and other diagnostic laboratories. They also participate in journal clubs, rounds and seminars; present/publish case reports, and teach clinical pathology to students and veterinarians. The section of Clinical Pathology and the College of Veterinary Medicine are dedicated to furthering education and knowledge through scientific research, so residents are expected to design and carry out a hypothesisdriven clinical pathology-related research project and present and publish research data. Ample opportunities exist at Cornell University for pursuing advanced research training (e.g. PhD) and candidates with such interests are strongly encouraged to apply. A DVM or equivalent is required for this position and at least one year in clinical practice/internship or completion of a PhD program in biomedical sciences is preferred. Beginning annual salary is $35,700, plus benefits. Continuation in the program is contingent upon satisfactory annual performance evaluations.
