The Department of Pathology forms the cornerstone of medical education by providing insights into the nature, causes, and mechanisms of diseases. It bridges the gap between basic sciences and clinical medicine, enabling students to understand how structural and functional changes in cells, tissues, and organs manifest as clinical disease. The department is deeply committed to teaching, diagnostics, and research, preparing future doctors to apply pathological knowledge in effective disease prevention, diagnosis, and treatment.
