First HBCU Forensic Pathology Fellowship | Atlanta News

DeKalb County and Morehouse School of Medicine are launching the nation’s first forensic pathology fellowship at an HBCU, tackling a critical shortage of certified pathologists while paving the way for greater diversity in the field. The one-year program, led by fellow Oluwaseun Ogunbona — a Nigerian-trained neuropathologist from Texas — offers immersive training in death investigations, autopsies, and forensic evidence analysis. From interpreting wound patterns to using X-rays to locate bullets, fellows gain hands-on expertise while learning lab techniques like toxicology testing and injury documentation. This groundbreaking initiative not only builds capacity in forensic science but also opens doors for underrepresented communities to enter this vital medical specialty.
