About M Zehra Ordulu Sahin

Dr Ordulu’s academic interests include: 1) Studying clinicopathological characteristics of gynecological tract tumors 2) Integrating different layers of molecular “omics” data into the practice of gynecologic pathology. With a background combining a strong training in anatomic pathology and a long-standing experience in molecular genetics, her long-term goals are to continue to integrate the two fields to transform the gynecologic pathology diagnostics into the era of precision medicine.
