“Diseases present in weird ways that you're never going to think of. There are lesions that you see and, at the moment, you're dumbfounded because you have no idea how a disease could present that way... I think the important thing about Pathology is that it humbles you every day.”

Our latest guest on the Cornell Veterinary Podcast is Andrew Miller ’01, D.V.M. ’05, section chief and director of the anatomic pathology lab at Cornell’s Animal Health Diagnostic Center. He discusses with show host Michelle Moyal, D.V.M.’ 07, just what exactly an anatomic pathologist does, and why it's so important. We also learn what led him to his life of looking at necropsies, biopsies and canine brain tumors — and the one burning scientific question he would most want to answer if he could.
