Mission 

ImagingThe Department of Pathology is one of the seven basic science departments at Harvard Medical School. It also has academic oversight of Pathology across each of the Harvard affiliated institutions. The mission of the department is therefore really two-fold. As the academic home of Pathology across the Harvard affiliated institutions, the mission of the central department is to enhance the opportunities in Pathology across the hospitals and the affiliates and to ensure that the interactions among the various Pathology entities at Harvard are synergistic. As one of the preclinical departments, the mission is to provide a research academic environment that allows our faculty, students, fellows and staff not only to succeed, but to excel. Our goal is to advance our fundamental understanding of the pathology and the pathophysiologic mechanisms of disease, and to bring this knowledge to others through teaching and publication.
