Visit the Grainger Science Hub and meet scientists from the College of American Pathologists to explore the role of a pathologist and examine its impact on overall health. 🩺
This interactive drop-in experience will introduce the world of pathology through hands-on observation, pattern recognition, and diagnostic thinking. 🤔
Visitors will rotate through stations that mirror the work pathologists do every day: examining tissues, identifying disease patterns, comparing healthy and abnormal samples, and using clues to determine diagnoses. 🧑‍⚕️
Discover how pathology is the “detective work” of medicine, combining science, visual analytics, and classification to understand disease. 🦠
Please be advised that this Meet a Scientist session will feature human remains. Visitor discretion is advised.
