Our Ninth Annual Pathology Research Day was held on Tuesday, October 28, 2014. Research Day included a full schedule of presenters covering a variety of research topics. Morning seminar presentations by faculty, trainees and staff took place in the HP Smith Conference Room (W256 GH) and the plenary presentation, given by Dr. Stephen Miller, was held at 1:00 PM in the Medical Education and Research Facility (2117 MERF). The poster session was held in the Eckstein Medical Research Building (EMRB Atrium) with 39 posters presented throughout the afternoon. The daylong event was an opportunity for Pathology researchers to share their research projects, latest findings and knowledge about topics inherent to their daily work and career.
