About Dr. Hosseini
I am a board-certified anatomical and cytopathologist focusing on head and neck pathology. I finished my clinical training at the University of Pennsylvania and University of California San Francisco before joining the Department of Pathology as an Assistant Professor.
My primary clinical interest is performing, interpreting, and teaching fine needle aspiration (FNA), including ultrasound-guided biopsies. My research interest is to study the diagnostic performance and to expand the clinical utility of FNA as a reliable, low-cost, minimally invasive biopsy method, particularly for molecular studies. Additionally, based on my experience with big data in genomics, I am interested in developing informatic tools to facilitate documentation, reporting, retrieval, and communication for pathologists, physicians, and patients.
In my previous research life as a human geneticist, I have discovered several genetic determinants of complex traits such as microvascular diabetic complications, glycemic control, refractive errors, intraocular pressure, serum lipid levels, and congenital heart diseases. I serve as a reviewer for several genetics and pathology journals and have authored multiple peer-reviewed manuscripts in the field of cytopathology and human genetics.
