Research

The main interest of research in our department is the application of recent pathological research methodologies to understand the pathogenesis, improve the diagnosis and predict the prognosis of human disease.

The department collaborates with other clinical departments in different research fields and theses. It also provides research opportunities for postgraduates and staff from the department and from any other discipline both from Egypt and abroad.

The main research facilities available at the department:

  1. Histopathological examination and evaluation of tissues .
  2. Cytopathological assessment of exfoliative and FNA cytology.
  3. immunohistochemical – based researches.
