Neuropathology Fellowship
Opening for 2021-2022
The Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine at the University of California Irvine offers a two year ACGME-accredited Neuropathology Fellowship. M.D./D.O. candidates who have completed two years of ACGME-accredited anatomic pathology training are eligible and welcome to apply. The first year will be primarily clinical neuropathology encompassing a gamut of surgical and autopsy neuropathology cases including frozen sections, forensics, and pediatric pathology. The second year will afford junior attending opportunities as well as research time.
Neuropathologists on faculty include Drs. Edwin Monuki (developmental), Ronald Kim (general, dementia, spinal cord), William Yong (general, brain tumors, biobanking) and Mari Perez-Rosendahl (general, neuromuscular). Dr. Perez-Rosendahl and Professor Tahseen Mozaffar of the Department of Neurology specialize in neuromuscular pathology. The close cooperation with the Neuromuscular Medicine team is an especial strength of the training. In addition, UC Irvine hosts an outstanding annual international neuromuscular colloquium. Cases from the UC Irvine Gavin Herbert Eye Institute, encompassing diseases of the globe, orbit, eyelids, and conjunctival membranes, will be studied under the tutelage of Dr. Maria Del Valle Estopinal, the departmental ophthalmic pathologist. Translational research interests include neuro-oncology, COVID-19, and neuromuscular pathology. Basic research strengths in our department includes close interactions with MD/PhD and PhD research colleagues within our department and includes expertise in neurodevelopment and neurodegeneration. Autopsy neuropathology training is supplemented by 2 funded programs: 1) UC Irvine Alzheimer Disease Research Center that encourages research into the pathogenesis of different types of dementia; 2) Alzheimer Biomarker Consortium – Down syndrome (ABC-DS), a signature NIA program, which is actively engaged in research into Alzheimer disease pathogenesis in Down syndrome. A unifying theme in much of our research is to apply innovative artificial intelligence approaches to digital pathology to better diagnose disease and to enable preclinical research.
