Development of New Computerized Teaching Methods

The department has a computerized educational development laboratory equipped with the hardware and software necessary to produce virtual slides and interactive learning modules (see: The Virtual Slidebox). A computing center grant and a National Library of Medicine Information Resource Grant have supported equipment and programming for projects. Current projects include: a virtual slide image bank for medical students in pathology, computer assisted patient simulations focused on laboratory testing and biopsy procedures, and a comparative database of cancer pathology.
