Abstract
In the fifty years of our School of Medicine, the research activity in our Anatomic Pathology (AP) has successfully applied technological innovations in the continuous development of knowledge in the field of human diseases, focusing on neoplasms. This has allowed Anatomic Pathology to evolve from basic macroscopic and microscopic observation to a clinical science with diagnostic, prognostic and predictive role. Anatomic Pathology is nowadays a morpho-molecular discipline, in which the original approach is not lost, but is enriched by the current knowledge and is projected into the future. This review will cover the history of our scientific and teaching activity as seen throughout our technological evolution. The research activity that has allowed AP to obtain international recognition has been instrumental in our teaching of Pathology. Over the years, we have formed scores of pathologists and researchers. We are proud that some of our former students have achieved prestigious positions in international and national institutions.
