Pathology & Laboratory Medicine Grand Rounds

Pathology Grand Rounds lectures feature faculty, fellow and resident speakers discussing mechanisms of disease and updates to the practice of pathology in a seminar format. The seminars are at noon on Fridays and provide continuing medical education (CME) credits.
 
Socially distanced meetings are by zoom. In-person Grand Rounds are held in 6065 Hutchinson and a light lunch is provided for attendees.  

On the first Friday of each month, cutting edge research is presented by a Pathology Department faculty member or an invited speaker from outside the department. Each academic year, the Grand Rounds series begins in September and ends in June.  

Contact Jeanne Frois (e-mail: jfrois@tulane.edu; phone: 504-988-1170) for more information and Grand Rounds scheduling.
