Pathology, the study of disease, integrates all aspects of biomedical science to further the understanding of disease processes and develop methods for diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of disease. The PhD in Pathology & Laboratory Medicine is for students who want to participate in breakthrough scientific research and contribute to the advancement of biomedical knowledge, learning how diseases work at a mechanistic level. Graduates will be prepared for postdoctoral fellowships, science writing, running a lab as a principal investigator, and shaping science policy at the government level.

Our department focuses particularly on cancer, immunologic, inflammatory, and neurologic disorders. We have a strong and diverse faculty composed of core and joint members who offer multiple research and training opportunities in experimental pathology.

Current foci of research by departmental faculty and students include:

  • The development of the brain
  • Disorders of brain development and normal aging
  • Effects of nutrition on the developing brain
  • Disorders of cell cycle and cell signaling in the pathogenesis and progression of cancer
  • Normal and abnormal immunological responses to infectious agents and environmental toxins and to other stimuli
  • The neuroscience of Alzheimer’s disease
  • Traumatic brain injury
  • The pathogenesis of asthma
  • Development of immunotherapies for cancer and infectious diseases

Prospective applicants to the PhD program in Pathology must enter via the Program in Biomedical Sciences (PiBS). This program emphasizes interdisciplinary training for the first year, after which time students will be free to transition into one of the doctoral programs offered by the Department of Pathology.

Program in Biomedical Sciences (PiBS)

The Department of Pathology & Laboratory Medicine participates in the Program in Biomedical Sciences (PiBS), which offers training toward the PhD degree by integrating the foundations of interdisciplinary biomedical research with focused investigation and preparation for career advancement.

In the first year, PhD students will participate in the Foundations in Biomedical Sciences (FBS) core curriculum as well as have the opportunity to select elective courses focused on area-specific interests. Additionally, trainees will engage in laboratory rotations, journal clubs, and research seminars. Trainees will work closely with a faculty advisor in the development of an individual plan that will be tailored to serve specific research and professional goals. After selection of a laboratory, students will join the program/department with which the mentor is affiliated and continue advanced studies towards candidacy.

For more on how to apply, please visit our website .

Program Overview

The doctoral program is broadly based, offers research training in both basic and clinical investigations of disease, and encourages students to integrate the two areas where appropriate in their doctoral research. The core curriculum provides course, seminar, and laboratory opportunities for students to learn the pathogenesis, morphology, and cell and molecular biology of human diseases and laboratory techniques used to study them.

Laboratories of faculty in the department and other faculty in Graduate Medical Sciences provide opportunities for doctoral dissertation research in many aspects of the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment of disease.

Students are expected to fulfill all course requirements, choose a dissertation laboratory, and begin preparatory dissertation research within four terms. They then take the qualifying examination and, if successful, present a dissertation research proposal to their faculty committee and proceed with their research. Students in the alternative tracks follow a modified curriculum in which certain departmental requirements are substituted by requirements of the respective interdepartmental program.

Our faculty members are committed to facilitating all pathology graduate students’ efficient progress through our graduate programs, in a goal-oriented manner. The student group is enthusiastic and interactive. And our graduates pursue careers in academia, biotechnology settings, government laboratories and, if also medically trained, in clinical specialties.

Specializations

In addition to the pathology curriculum, students may choose from three additional specialized tracks:

  • Pathology—Cell and Molecular Biology
  • Pathology—Immunology
  • Pathology—Neuroscience

Specialized coursework offered through the department includes:

  • Basic and Experimental Pathology
  • Protein Modification and Molecular Basis of Human Diseases
  • The Business of Science

Involvement with the MD/PhD Program

  • Pathology regularly participates in evening sessions with the MD/PhD students where research opportunities within pathology are discussed.
  • Several faculty members in pathology serve as interviewers for the MD/PhD applicants, providing a critical component since the group struggles to find sufficient MD interviewers.
  • Recent MD/PhD graduates who have defended and gone back to graduate medical school are Bryan Belikoff (Remick Lab/Defended Spring 2010), Besam Khidhir (Haber/Harvard Lab/Defended Spring 2010), Chad Mayer (Kurosawa Lab/Defended Spring 2014), David Stepien (Remick Lab/Defended Spring 2013), Louis Vaickus (Remick Lab/Defended Spring 2010), Terry Hsieh (Remick Lab/Defended Spring 2016), Melody Lun (Off-Site-Childrens Hospital/Lehtinen Lab/Defended Spring 2016), Nisma Mujahid (Off-Site-Massachusetts General Hospital/Fisher Lab/Defended Spring 2017), and Daniel Kirsch (McKee Lab/Defended Spring 2024).

Program Structure

Md/phd and phd general requirements.

A course of study and laboratory experience extending over one to two years is followed by a qualifying examination, which is taken within one term after completion of required coursework. The proposal for dissertation research is then developed and presented to the dissertation committee; the proposed research extends over another two to three years and is performed under the guidance of the major advisor with the help and advice of the committee.

The Director of Graduate Studies serves as a curriculum advisor to all students in the first two years of the program and approves the course registration forms. After the required courses are completed, the student’s research advisor provides direction in the choice of additional courses.

Laboratory rotations are performed in the first year of study to:

  • Acquaint students with research opportunities in the program
  • Teach a variety of approaches to research and teach specific research methods
  • Permit choice of a laboratory for dissertation research. The dissertation research advisor should be chosen and preliminary work in the area of research begun early in the second year of study

A Person-Centered Care Approach

The University of New Haven’s School of Health Sciences is one of the first schools in the United States to pursue higher education certification from Planetree International. The partnership between the School of Health Sciences and Planetree International represents an unprecedented opportunity to develop and grow a health professions educational experience from the ground up, with a person-centered care approach in mind.

Immunohematology, also commonly referred to as "blood bank," covers the science and technology used to collect and prepare blood products and how to determine the suitability of blood products for transfusion.

The chemical analysis of blood and body fluids, focused on identification and quantification of various endogenous and exogenous compounds. This area may also include the sub-specialties of serology and immunology, focusing on identifying immune system function.

This course focuses on identification, treatment, and understanding of the fungi, parasites, and viruses known to cause infectious disease in humans.

The culture, identification, and susceptibility testing of infectious bacteria by traditional biochemical techniques and molecular methods.

This is the study of the cellular elements of the blood and the blood-forming tissues, including development, maturation, function, and destruction. This course also covers common hematological disease processes, such as anemia and leukemia.

The process of coagulation (clotting) and blood vessel repair and the major disorders of hemostasis are addressed in this course. Also covered is analysis of other body fluids, including urine, feces, cerebrospinal fluid, and serous and synovial fluids.

The M.S. in Medical Laboratory Science graduate program is designed for individuals holding a bachelor of science in biology, chemistry, or a related major and who are not certified medical technologists or medical laboratory scientists but who desire a career in the clinical laboratory sciences. To view the complete list of courses you'll take while pursuing your master's degree in Medical Laboratory Science, check out the Academic Catalog:

Medical Laboratory Science, M.S.

The Benefits of Our Degree Over a Certificate

Although earning a post-baccalaureate certificate in medical laboratory science (not to be confused with ASCP certification) is another route to a clinical laboratory position, there are a number of advantages to a degree that outweigh those of a certificate:

  • A degree simply has more cachet than a certificate. It will make a bigger impact on your résume.
  • A certificate is generally not eligible for financial aid or tuition reimbursement.
  • The amount of time you would invest in earning a certificate is roughly the same as for the M.S. because it has to cover all of the same program-specific content areas.

This program is fully accredited by the National Accrediting Agency for Clinical Laboratory Sciences (NAACLS), awarded in April 2023 for a period of 5 years.

What Can You Do After Medical Laboratory Technology Course?

After Medical Laboratory Technology

Description

In the healthcare industry, not all jobs require you to deal with patients on a direct/ face-to-face basis. There are other opportunities as well that are very much in-demand and allow you to work behind the scenes. However, the good part is that these professions still have a positive impact on people’s health.

Pursuing a career in  Medical Lab Technology  is one of those opportunities. While most other fields are seeing a rapid fall in the jobs available, this field is expected to see a  projected increase of 18% by 2024  (according to  Bureau of Labor Statistics ).

All the hype around ‘Medical Technologist Degree’

We all know how challenging and exciting a career opportunity in the healthcare industry can be. If making it to the MBBS course or nursing degree seems too difficult, why not pursue a career as a medical lab technologist! With the introduction of this course, there has been a sharp increase in the opportunities available in the medical industry.

There are three types of courses that are offered by colleges and universities:

  • Bachelor’s Degree – B.Sc degree in  Medical Lab Technology
  • Diploma Course
  • Certificate Program

The course duration for all the three courses mentioned above is different. While the bachelor’s degree is a three-year program, the diploma and certificate programs are of 2 and 1 year respectively. If you are looking to gain in-depth knowledge in the field, the bachelor’s degree is a fine option. On the other hand, you can go for the diploma or certificate program in case you are short of time.

What is Medical Laboratory Technology?

Medical Laboratory Technology is also called as  Clinical Laboratory Science . The field is majorly concerned with the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of diseases by means of clinical laboratory tests.

As a part of the course, the students learn to perform the tests that help in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases. The course also equips candidates with the skills required to handle advanced equipment so as to perform accurate laboratory tests.

What does a Medical Laboratory Technician do?

Still not interested in making a career as a Medical Laboratory Technician? Before you choose a career, you need to be able to answer the question:  What does a medical lab technician do?

A medical lab technician works in laboratory settings that help in disease diagnosis. But is it just ‘it’? That would be a  NO . The number of duties that a medical lab technologist performs makes the position highly demanding. The work of a medical laboratory technician requires creativity, problem-solving skills, innovation and much more.

What role does a Medical Laboratory Technician play in the healthcare field?

Before you make up your mind if you really want to pursue this course or not, read on to find out more about the role of a Medical Laboratory Technician in the healthcare field.

Do you feel hospitals and doctors’ clinics would be the same without the support of medical lab technicians? They play a very critical role in the functioning of any healthcare facility. Working under the supervision of laboratory managers and technologists, doctors conduct tests on the specimens.

For Example, you are due for a blood test. The nurse takes your sample and stores it in the medical container. But what happens after that? The blood is taken to the laboratory and it is the Medical Laboratory Technician who conducts the test on the sample.

What are the Career Options Available in This Field?

The field includes areas such as blood banking, clinical chemistry, haematology, immunology, microbiology, cytotechnology, urine analysis, and blood sampling, etc. There are ‘n’ number of fields that can serve as  suitable career options  for aspirants.

With the passing years, the course has multiplied in terms of what you learn, thereby multiplying the scope as well. The scope has expanded with a number of opportunities have been on the rise.

  • CT scan technicians
  • MRI technicians
  • X-ray Technicians
  • Dental Machine Technician
  • Operation Theatre Technician
  • MRI Technician
  • Pathology Technician
  • Physiotherapy Technician
  • Optical Laboratory Technician
  • Renal Dialysis Technician
  • Radiology Technician

A number of Medical Laboratory Technicians find employment in pathology labs, research labs, urologist office, pharmaceuticals, and hospitals.

Apart from the above opportunities, an aspirant can also pursue a career in the education line. The students graduate with the degree and go for a career in Medical Laboratory Technology.

Komal, a B.Sc MLT student at  Sharda University  says,  “I always wanted to go for a career in medicine but could not clear the medical entrance exam. I decided to get into lab technology and make a career out of it.”

A career in Medical Laboratory Technology is one of the most challenging and satisfying careers. Every day, a technician/ technologist gets to learn something new, which is great for one’s career. So what are you waiting for? If the medical field interests you, then this course is one of the options you can consider venturing into.

So why not be a part of this interesting and intriguing field of medicine already?
