Foundation of Pathologists targets trained physicians, MD’s, who specialize in studying blood, fluid, or tissue, and who is responsible for the accuracy of laboratory tests. The field of pathology is critical to the accurate diagnosis of patients in a clinical setting, as well as to determine cause of death in the deceased. Pathologists lead the examination of the tissue and organ samples and coordinates or communicates with the primary care physician to ultimately determine a diagnosis of disease or cause of death.
Pathologists enjoy learning about anatomy and physiology. They prefer to work in a lab behind a microscope instead of interfacing with patients all day. They are drawn to the scientific, analytical, and technical aspects of medicine. Pathologists work in a lab, hospital, or morgue, to help confirm disease diagnoses and causes of illness or death.
