July 2026—Dedicated training in histology is increasingly getting short shrift as many academic medical institutions nationwide move to an organ system-based teaching structure. Recognizing this trend, a group of faculty and residents at the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health are employing creativity, a simple software program, and a bit of teamwork to boost medical students’ exposure to the specialty.
July 15, 2026—Leica Biosystems, an operating company of Danaher, has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire privately held StatLab Medical Products, a global developer and manufacturer of anatomic pathology products, from Linden Capital Partners and Audax Private Equity. Following the closing, StatLab will become part of Leica Biosystems. StatLab provides a broad portfolio of products across the preanalytical and analytical histology workflow, from specimen collection and tissue processing through slide preparation and staining. Built on a strong reputation for

February 2025—When NYU Langone Health began focusing on digital pathology last year, it also began focusing on people—those it would need to keep such a program humming along. “When we were setting up this operation, it was pretty obvious to me that I wanted to have a dedicated team of people that are going to focus just on digital pathology,” says Rui Soares, anatomic pathology operations director at NYU Langone, a multisite system with approximately 80 pathologists at four hospitals. It would be “unfair,” he adds, to expect laboratory assistants to learn and perform such specialized tasks while performing other duties.
