UNR, Aurora agreement
The University of Nevada School of Medicine and Aurora Diagnostics, an independent specialized laboratory company focused on anatomic pathology, agreed on an educational and clinical affiliation.
The unique public-private partnership is designed to enrich learning opportunities for students at the School of Medicine, to enhance the anatomic pathology services available in northern Nevada and to serve as a platform for future clinical research partnerships.
Aurora’s Reno-based pathologists will join the School of Medicine’s faculty.
The network of pathologists will provide to students sub-specialized training in all major fields of pathology: hematopathology, cytopathology, gastrointestinal pathology, urinary pathology, dermatopathology, pediatric pathology, molecular diagnostics, gyn/breast pathology and transfusion medicine.
