[Histonet] RE: Clinical histology to Research histology

[Truscott, Tom]

Hi Cassie, For me, it has been mostly positive changes. I went from feeling like a robot cranking out slides and rarely hearing about any impact on the patient to being involved from start to finish on published articles in research journals. I've been able to use cutting edge technology to help develop new diagnostic tests. For the most part I've been able to work independently, at my own pace. The annual budget crunch can be annoying, but good research usually gets funded. I've had to cut way more serial sections than I did in clinical and do primarily IHC and work closely with WADDL for processing and a few special stains. Sometimes, you have to know when to quit trying to make something work. I could probably ramble on. Any specific questions? Good luck with your endeavors! Tom Truscott
