Director of Laboratory Informatics and Digital Pathology — SUNY Upstate

BY Dr. Keith J. Kaplan

And here it is — offered by The State of New York — A Director of Digital Pathology position. To my knowledge, I haven't seen too many jobs for "Director of Digital Pathology".

It looks like the position is being offered by SUNY Upstate Medical Center.  The position requires a MS in Computer Engineering/Medical Informatics or relevant field with a minumum of 5 years work experience and MBA strongly preferred.  

Now the cool part — project management, review and assessment of current and future information systems, leadership future pathology IT investments AND coordination of integration initiatives to EPIC and other EMRS!

And the really cool part — the position will also be responsible for implementation of a state-of-the-art Digital Pathology system which will be integrated to large physician practices and hospitals.

Sounds like Syracuse has some big plans for Digital Pathology within their healthcare delivery system.  

Look forward to deliverables to come from whoever accepts this opportunity and challege.
