October: Hispanic Heritage Month Dr. Nidia Messias
In 2024, the RPS would like to continue our focus on embracing diversity, equity and inclusion; and on broadening our international network. One way to achieve this goal is to celebrate a semi-monthly calendar of observances and appreciations with 10-question interviews highlighting our diverse pool of members. This month we feature RPS member Dr. Nidia Messias for Hispanic Heritage month! Dr. Messias is a native of Brazil. She has been a member of the RPS Program Committee. She is an Associate Professor in the Department of Pathology and Immunology at Washington University in Saint Louis. She is currently the director for the combined renal and genitourinary pathology fellowship, the Quality Improvement and Patient Safety Officer for Anatomic and Molecular Pathology, and a DEI liaison for the department of pathology.
