![]() Further exposure to laboratory hematology and bone marrow pathology is provided through elective rotations at George Washington University Hospital and Children’s National Medical Center. Our program is integrated with the Hematology Department of the NIH Clinical Center, where fellows receive training in bone marrow pathology and laboratory hematology. The facilities of the NCI Core Laboratories including Laser-capture microdissection, Microarray facilities, just to mention a few, provide access to the most modern molecular techniques. The clinical rotations allow for exposure to these specialized diagnostic modalities. Jaffe, provides a diagnostic service, which includes routine morphology, immunocytochemistry, flow cytometry, classical and research cytogenetics, and molecular genetics. ![]() The Hematopathology Section, under the leadership of Dr. In the second year, the majority of time is available for research. In the first year, fellows focus primarily on clinical rotations, fulfilling the ACGME requirements to qualify for the board certification examination in hematopathology. Appointments are for a period of 2 years, with extension available. These investigations include the immunologic, functional, and molecular aspects of human leukemia and lymphoma. Fellows have an opportunity to pursue laboratory interests related to experimental hematopathology and immunology. Participation in research is an intrinsic component of the fellowship program. The Hematopathology Section collaborates with the Clinical Services of the NCI, NHLBI, and NIAID in both clinical management and research. In addition, approximately over 2000 challenging cases are submitted in consultation each year. Material is derived principally from an active in-house treatment program for both adult and pediatric hematologic malignancies. ![]() ![]() The Hematopathology Section of the Laboratory of Pathology, National Cancer Institute, offers a fully ACGME-accredited fellowship in hematopathology, which provides broad exposure to the diagnostic and investigative aspects of neoplastic hematopathology. ![]()
