Core Courses

The teaching in Pathology is designed to provide a systematic coverage of the principal diseases or groups of diseases, including their etiology, pathogenesis, pathology and pathophysiology. This is done with a combination of lectures and small group sessions, in conjunction and integrated with the other units of the curriculum. Thus, the Department of Pathology contributes to multidisciplinary Units 7 and 8, as outlined in BOM as well as to the section, Introduction to Hospital Practice.

COURSE IN APPLIED PATHOLOGY

Weekly clinico-pathological conferences are offered in conjunction with the Medicine rotation.

Electives

The Department provides four-week electives for medical students after completion of Unit 8 of the Basis of Medicine. These are available at the Royal Victoria Hospital, Montreal General Hospital, Jewish General Hospital, St. Mary's Hospital and the Montreal Children's Hospital.
