RECENT ADVANCES IN HEMATOPATHOLOGY,
ENDOCRINE AND NEUROPATHOLOGY
Dr. Judith Ferry is a native of New Orleans, Louisiana. She graduated from Tulane University with a degree in Chemical Engineering, after spending a junior year abroad in London at Imperial College of Science and Technology. She earned her MD from New York University Medical Center. Dr. Ferry was accepted as a resident in Anatomic Pathology at the Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) and has stayed on at MGH on the faculty following residency. She is the Director of Hematopathology and the first recipient of the Nancy Lee Harris, MD, Endowed Chair in Pathology at MGH, and Professor of Pathology at Harvard Medical School. Her professional interests focus on general hematopathology, but especially on lymphomas involving extranodal sites. Dr. Ferry is an author or co-author of over 150 peer-reviewed publications, numerous chapters and reviews, and two textbooks: Atlas of Lymphoid Hyperplasia and Lymphoma (1997) and Extranodal Lymphomas (2011). She has contributed to WHO Classification “blue books” on tumors of 11 different organs systems: Hematopoietic and lymphoid, Central nervous system, Urinary system and male genital organs, Digestive system, Female reproductive organs, Breast, Head and Neck, Thoracic, Skin, Endocrine and Eye. Dr. Ferry resides in Boston, and has two daughters, Cynthia and Deborah.
Dr. Sadow is the Director of Head and Neck Pathology at Massachusetts General Hospital and the primary consultant in Endocrine Pathology. He has been at Harvard Medical School and Mass General Brigham since his postgraduate training 20 years ago, with residency and fellowship training at Brigham and Women’s Hospital and his subsequent faculty position at Mass General. Interested in endocrine pathology since the early 1990s, Dr. Sadow did his medical school and graduate school (PhD) at the University of Chicago, where he studied the genetics of thyroid pathophysiology, an area of research that over a quarter of a century later, he continues. Dr. Sadow has a love of art, including ancient art, as most notably pursued as an Egyptology and Egyptian archaeology student for his undergraduate university education at Johns Hopkins University. Pathotim will be Dr. Sadow’s first visit to Romania, and he is thrilled to be joining the participants and organizers of the course.
Arie Perry, MD is a Professor of Pathology and Neurological Surgery at the University of California in San Francisco, where he serves as the Director of Neuropathology and the Neuropathology Fellowship program. He received his MD and residency training at UT Southwestern in Dallas, Texas, followed by surgical pathology, neuropathology, and molecular cytogenetics research fellowships at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN, where he worked closely with his mentor, the late Dr. Bernd Scheithauer. His interests have focused mostly on classification, grading, and molecular characterization of both adult and pediatric brain tumors. He has authored over 650 publications and participated as an editor for the WHO 2016 and 2021 (5th ed.) CNS tumor classification updates, as well as an author in 10 of the 5th edition WHO blue books. He has also previously served as a chief editor for Brain Pathology (official journal of the International Society of Neuropathology), the Practical Surgical Neuropathology textbook (2 editions), and Greenfield’s Neuropathology (2 editions). Dr. Perry maintains an active consult service and is a frequently invited lecturer. He also enjoys creative modes of teaching making use of his longstanding passion for music. In this respect, he has been featured in several media stories for using “neuropathology songs” in medical education, including CD recordings and YouTube videos.
