Digital and Computational Pathology Laboratory/DCPL (Pathology and Cell Biology)

Overview of Services

Through a partnership with NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital, the Digital and Computational Pathology Laboratory (DCPL) was established in 2018 with a mission to facilitate the basic, translational and clinical research in pathology, and to support related educational efforts.

To accomplish this mission, the lab provides meaningful access to robust tooling and infrastructure, along with technical expertise.
