Did you know pathology has been shaping modern medicine for more than 200 years? Pioneers like Rudolf Virchow, known as the father of cellular pathology, laid the foundation for how we understand disease today. Trailblazers such as William Henry Welch and Dorothy Reed Mendenhall further advanced the field, helping pave the way for many of the diagnostic practices we rely on today. Swipe to read through their groundbreaking discoveries and contributions. Comment below who the modern #PioneersInPathology are. #ASCPPathologistWeek #PatientsNeedPathologists #DidYouKnow #CellularPathology #PathologyHistory #RudolfVirchow #WilliamHenryWelch #DorothyReedMendenhall

Making historic contributions in pathology is part of the legacy of Stephen Norman, MD. His late great uncle Dr. Foster Matthew Johns was a clinical pathologist and served as president of ASCP in 1936, and was one of the first to cultivate the malaria parasite outside of the human body. But a connection to a career in pathology was even closer to Dr. Norman courtesy of his father, Dr. Tom David Norman, an academic then private practice pathologist. Read more on the impact both of his family members had on his career at the link below. bit.ly/3NbKZgo #RootsAndRoutes #CriticalValues #StrongerTogether #ASCPPathologistWeek #PatientsNeedPathologists

Deciding what to be when she grew up was easy for Courtney Jackson, MD, who was inspired by her mother, Ann Long Jackson, MD, to pursue a career in pathology. Courtney’s earliest memories of visiting her mother’s laboratory date back to preschool, cementing her interest into the back of her mind. Her mother’s grossing lab is where she was introduced, but the influence of those experiences still impacts her work today. Check out the advice Dr. Jackson received from her mother that was dubbed ‘The Ann Jackson Rule’ and more at the link below. bit.ly/4ukJ4G2 #RootsAndRoutes #CriticalValues #StrongerTogether #ASCPPathologistWeek #PatientsNeedPathologists

“Sometimes making the diagnosis of ‘normal’ can be a lot harder than making a diagnosis of a disease, even a diagnosis like cancer” ASCP CEO Ali Brown, MD, FASCP, kicks off #ASCPPathologistWeek by listing 3 things a pathologist wishes patients knew about pathology reports. #PatientsNeedPathologists #ASCPPathologistWeek
