  • Conduct postmortem dissections under direct supervision and review findings with the pathologist
  • Select and submit appropriate tissue samples for microscopic examination, as directed
  • Photograph specimens and organs as indicated for documentation and teaching
  • Perform additional duties or special studies as requested by the supervising pathologist

Requirements:
