Informatics

Residents rotate through the laboratory information systems area, specimen handling area, and the management offices of the chairman to develop an understanding of the complexity of information systems as they relate to hospital information systems and to laboratory-specific quality management issues.

 In addition, residents experience and study basic management issues in the laboratories to better grasp the numerous quality issues necessary to manage both anatomic and clinical laboratories. This rotation is supplemented by a year-long didactic sequence focusing on the principles of management.
