Pathology & Laboratory Medicine
Multiple colors of cells

Center for Translational Pathology

The Center for Translational Pathology (CTP) will provide investigators with high quality, state of the art, and cost-effective tissue-based and clinical laboratory assays, biospecimens, consultative pathology services, multiparametric imaging, mass spectrometry, molecular pathology, mouse models and advanced cellular therapeutics for basic, translational, and clinical research. Originally established in 2007 as the Translational Research Program (TRP) within the Department of Pathology & Laboratory Medicine at Weill Cornell Medicine, the TRP has since grown and expanded to include numerous core facilities within the Department of Pathology & Laboratory Medicine. This new center will be a pillar for the Meyer Cancer Center and its designation as an NCI Comprehensive Cancer Center.

MISI Lab
Multiparametric In Situ Imaging (MISI) Laboratory
The Multiparametric In Situ Imaging (MISI) Laboratory centralizes both key personnel and several cutting-edge platforms which are complementarily geared toward the in situ-based profiling of cellular microenvironments at single cell resolution, in tumor and non-tumor tissues, thereby driving the discovery of novel and personalized therapies.
Computational Pathology
Computational Pathology
The department’s work in computational biology seeks to develop novel tools for integration and analysis of “omics” data from distinct patients, model organisms, and technological platforms. This research, through the integration of multi-modal data, aims at the development of novel prediction algorithms for disease prognostication and therapy selection, and the integration of such multimodal predictors into current patients clinical management.
Telescope and monitor
Pathology Core Lab
The Pathology Core Lab (PCL) functions as a centralized and comprehensive resource for investigators seeking to access and utilize histology, immunohistochemistry and molecular services offered by the Center for Translational Pathology.
Experimental Cellular Therapy

The Center for Translational Pathology’s Investigational Cellular Therapy Laboratory offers researchers cutting edge cGMP support to generate experimental cell-based therapeutic products.
