Updates in Molecular Genetics in Bone and Soft Tissue Pathology
I will be discussing a variety of issues pertinent to general surgical pathologist and those who have expertise / special interest in bone and soft tissue pathology including recent updates in molecular genetics in bone and soft tissue pathology (to include application of various molecular diagnostics tools available and how molecular information can help aid tumor classification).
John Gross
Dr. John Gross is a board-certified pathologist at The Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, MD where he serves as the director of the bone and soft tissue pathology service since joining in 2020. A native of Omaha, NE, he completed undergraduate (BS, Biology), graduate (MS, Clinical Anatomy), medical school, and AP/CP pathology residency training where he was served as Chief Resident at Creighton University followed by fellowships in bone and soft tissue (University of Washington, Seattle WA, 2019) and surgical pathology (Mayo Clinic, Rochester MN, 2020) prior to joining The Johns Hopkins faculty as an assistant professor. Dr. Gross has clinical and academic expertise in the diagnosis of neoplastic and non-neoplastic bone and soft tissue pathology where he heads a busy clinical consultation and institutional sarcoma practice which has served as fertile research grounds to author and co-author nearly 100 peer-reviewed original research articles, expert reviews, and book chapters.
