Congratulations to the Schulich community on your recent achievements:

The Department of Pathology and Laboratory of Medicine would like to offer congratulations to Akeida Elliott-Benjamin, who has received the American Association of Pathologists’ Assistants (AAPA) Student Delegate Top Manuscript Winner among the 2022 class of student delegates.

Congratulations to Dr. Anita Woods from Physiology and Pharmacology and Dr. Charys Martin from the Department of Anatomy and Cell Biology for recently being hired in teaching scholar positions at Schulich. These positions allow these exceptional educators more time in their workload to perform work in the area of scholarship of teaching and learning.

After 34 years of dedicated service, Dr. Kamilia Rizkalla has retired from the Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine effective February 1, 2023. Kamilia was a valued member of the hematopathology, genitourinary pathology and cytopathology teams. Her expertise in hematopathology and contributions to teaching and mentorship will be sincerely missed.
