This blog will discuss anything related to the practice of forensic pathology. Topics will including recent articles in the medical literature, interesting cases in the news, TV forensics, and the general day to day things I have to deal with as a forensic pathologist. If there is something you want to know or have an idea for a topic, drop me a line. I am going to try and spend some time on histopathology with the hope of getting fellows ready for the boards!
