Research Information
As the Director of Comparative Pathology and Research Histology in the Translational Pathology Shared Resource (TPSR), my goal is to provide core pathology and histology resources to investigators to advance their research. The TPSR provides research histology, including immunohistochemistry (IHC) and novel antibody IHC optimization, as well as comprehensive necropsy and comparative pathology services for animal modeling systems with specific expertise and focus on mouse models. Veterinary Pathology Support is provided by a team of American College of Veterinary Pathologists (ACVP)-Board Certified Veterinary Pathologists who are experienced in experimental design, optimal tissue collection and staining options as well as gross and histopathologic evaluation. We also specialize in research-specific pathology, including slide and tissue scoring, IHC quantification, tissue interpretation, photomicrograph figure construction and grantsmanship specific to animal modeling and comparative pathology.
