Longitudinal rotating pathology elective: Reflections on a pilot project in pathology at Dalhousie

A new half-year longitudinal rotating pathology elective was offered to second-year Dalhousie medical students. The elective ran from January 2018 to April 2018 and again from January 2019 to April 2019. From both the student and preceptor perspective, the rotating elective provided a well-rounded experience in pathology, and is an excellent student introduction to residency programs and career options.
