Patología

The Department of Pathology offers a program leading to a master’s degree, as well as a combined BS/MS degree. The purpose of the program is to educate scientists who will become capable of investigating mechanisms of disease and who will pursue careers in research and/or teaching in an academic or commercial environment. Emphasis is placed on interdisciplinary approaches to the study of human disease.

Areas currently under investigation include tumor and stem cell biology, viral and chemical carcinogenesis, human retrovirology and AIDS, oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes, liver and pulmonary diseases, circulatory diseases, ophthalmology and neurodegenerative diseases.

We are living at a time of transformative change, an era of profound disruption and extraordinary opportunity. Communication and its related disciplines are at the center of these seismic shifts.

At University of Southern California Annenberg, we use journalism, communication, public diplomacy and public relations to deepen our understanding of these changes, to reinvent how we engage with our community and to advance the future of our fields.

With this enduring purpose at the heart of University of Southern California Annenberg, there is no place better equipped to prepare the most promising minds to inquire, innovate and lead at the global crossroads of media, technology and culture.
