About The Department

The Department of Pathology was established at the College of Medicine of the University of Cincinnati in 1903 and has an illustrious history of involvement in undergraduate medical and postgraduate education, pathology service, and the acquisition of new knowledge related to human disease. The Department was renamed Pathology and Laboratory Medicine in 1979 to better reflect its academic mission and clinical responsibilities in a large university medical center. The Department advances the mission of the University by working closely with the affiliates of the Medical Center. These include: The University Hospital (TUH),which is part of the Health Alliance of Greater Cincinnati (HAGC); Children's Hospital Medical Center (CHMC), the Veteran Administration Medical Center (VAMC) and the Northern Kentucky Coroner's Office.

Teaching and Research activities are conducted in the Medical Science Building (MSB), Cardiovascular Building (CVC), Genome Research Institue (GRI) and the Center for Academic Research Excellence Building (CARE).

The Department is also an integrated member of UC Physicians.
