General Rotations (AP/CP)


First and Second Year

Combined training in anatomic pathology and clinical pathology (AP/CP) at Emory consists of an integrated schedule of predominantly core rotations in the first two years of training. A total of 12 months of AP training and 12 months of CP training are broken into alternating 3 month blocks over these 2 years.

Third and Fourth Year

AP/CP training in the 3rd and 4th years of residency integrates an increasing proportion of rotations in subspecialty fields of anatomic and clinical pathology. Core rotations during these years are also notable for increased resident responsibility to prepare residents for fellowship and careers.
