Forensic Pathology Fellowship
Within the Department of Pathology, we offer a one-year Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME)-approved fellowship in Forensic Pathology, providing training in a state-of-the-art facility that is accredited by the National Association of Medical Examiners (NAME).
The Medical Examiner’s Office within the Department of Pathology at WMed serves as the Medical Examiner for 13 counties throughout western Michigan and also provides consultant forensic services for several other counties in Michigan and Indiana.
Our fellow will work alongside seven board-certified forensic pathologists, one of whom is also a board-certified neuropathologist, two forensic anthropologists, a board-certified forensic toxicologist and a board-certified forensic odontologist while being exposed to a wide-range of challenging medicolegal deaths. Our fellow will also have access to our in-house toxicology laboratory, radiology equipment (including a Lodox® radiographic scanner) and research histology laboratory.
