The Department of Histopathology at Galway University Hospitals is a recognised centre for postgraduate training in histopathology. Training is coordinated through the ICSMHT body. It involves spending a period of 2 years as a specialist registrar during which trainee pathologists rotate through different hospitals in Ireland.
