Biomedical research at the Keck School focuses on translational
research, linking laboratory research with new modalities
of diagnosis and therapy. Department of Pathology faculty
members play key roles in translational research. Their work
covers a broad spectrum of topics directly related to human
disease using a wide variety of approaches from the basic
sciences.
As part of one of the largest pathology departments in the
United States, faculty members provide a cutting-edge scientific
environment in the fields of cancer research, neurodegenerative
disorders, AIDS and other disease processes.
The department is particularly strong in areas of hematopathology,
immunocytochemistry, immunopathology, neuropathology, and
AIDS-related research. It also has ongoing research projects
in the new areas of molecular and genetic pathology.
