Pathology Research Retreat
Event Date: Friday, October 14, 2022
Join us for a Long-Awaited and Highly Anticipated Reunion!
We are excited to announce this year's retreat will now be held in person.
Our venue has changed! This year's retreat will be held at the Frances C. Arrillaga Alumni Center, McCaw Hall and Ford Gardens.
The purpose of our retreat is to allow Stanford Pathology members to become more familiar with the research that is being conducted in the Department, including basic, translational, and clinical projects. We hope this will facilitate new opportunities for collaborative studies and research training, and enhance prospects for additional funding of such activities.
Join us on Friday, October 14, 2022:
- Keynote Speaker: Emma Lundberg, PhD, Associate Professor of Bioengineering and of Pathology
- Overview: Paul Mischel, MD, Professor and Vice Chair for Research in the Department of Pathology, gives a talk about the Department's Research Portfolio.
- NEW! Flash Talks: 3-5 minute research presentations
- NEW! Pathology Art: Vote for your favorite research artwork which will be displayed throughout the event.
- All poster presenters will create a 3-minute video presentation and digital poster that can be previewed the week of the retreat. Presenters will also present their abstract poster in person at one of the two poster sessions at the retreat.
Cash prizes to be awarded in seven categories:
- Students
- Postdoctoral Fellows
- Research Associates
- CP Residents
- AP Residents
- Clinical Fellows
- Health Disparity Research
*Cash prize amounts are determined at the time of the event; please read eligibility criteria below
New prize! Submit your pathology artwork to be viewed at the event:
A new feature of our retreat for this year will be Pathology Art. If you wish to contribute, please upload a de-identified digital image from your research or clinical work that you think is aesthetic by September 15, 2022. Any manipulation should be applied across the entire image.
A panel of judges will select the most artistically compelling images, and these will be displayed at the department retreat. Retreat attendees will be asked to vote for their top three images and each will receive a prize.
Please upload your images; it will be fun to see the beauty in each other’s work.

About the Keynote Speaker
Emma Lundberg, PhD
Associate Professor of Bioengineering and of Pathology
Stanford University
In the interface between artificial intelligence, microscopy and proteomics, my research aims to define the spatiotemporal organization of the human proteome at a cellular and subcellular level; with the goal to understand how variations and deviations in protein expression patterns contribute to cellular function and disease. At Stanford, I’ll focus on the development of new methodologies for measuring and integrating image and proteomics data. I also aim to translate the wealth of data that my lab has generated as part of the Human Protein Atlas into spatiotemporal cellular models to understand the systems that underpin dynamic cellular functions and build knowledge that has the potential to empower clinical decision-making. For this reason, I’m particularly excited about the combination of being at both the Department of Bioengineering and Department of Pathology.
I’m an advocate for open science and have a strong interest in science communication, both to scientific audiences and the general public through innovative media, particularly in the intersection of science, health and games. For this reason I’m excited not only about being at Stanford, but also in the Bay Area with its buzzing game scene - it's the perfect place for realizing some of my wildest citizen science games ideas.
