Dr. Steven Smith is a current anatomic and clinical pathology PGY-1 resident at Northwestern University. His love for Pathology started at an early stage in his life when he met and shadowed a Pathologist while in high school, after an eventful career day. He completed medical training in his home country at the University of the West Indies, Kingston, Jamaica; where he graduated with honors. Prior to beginning residency, he served as the Project Manager at the Jamaica Cancer Care & Research Institute (JACCRI) and is a Research Associate at the Harvard/MGH Center on Genomics, Vulnerable Populations, and Health Disparities (CGVH). His work with JACCRI focused on the identification of health disparities associated with the diagnosis and treatment of cancer within the Caribbean and the improvement of regional cancer research and partnerships. He is passionate about global health and medical education, particularly improvement of pathology diagnostic services and professional training in under-resourced populations.
