Shadowing Program

Are you a current medical student interested in shadowing a pathologist? If you are a medical student enrolled in a medical school located in the Midwest, you can sign-up for a 2-hour shadowing experience using the calendar below to gain an understanding of the practice of pathology. We currently offer shadowing of surgical pathology, cytopathology, neuropathology and renal pathology with Dr. Saman Ahmadian, Dr. Tiffany Alley, Dr. Vidya Arole, Dr. Krishna Bharani, Dr. Dalia Ibrahim, Dr. Gary Tozbikian and Dr. Debra Zynger. Additionally, throughout the year we offer 1-hour shadowing from pathologists that practice within the organ system of the M1 and M2 block being covered at The Ohio State University College of Medicine. If none of the times in the calendar fit with your schedule, please email Chloe Ballow or Erin McLaughlin to arrange an alternative time.

If you would like additional information, please contact the Pathology Student Interest Group Support Administrator, Erin McLaughlin, or phone 614-293-8240.
