About Dr Matthew Clarke
Matthew took an alternative route into pathology training! Having really enjoyed an FY2 post in histopathology, he entered histopathology training after spending time as a core surgical trainee. He completed a PhD on the ‘molecular pathology of infant gliomas’ at the ICR, which led to him changing course again and entering diagnostic neuropathology training as an academic trainee. He was Chair of the RCPath Trainees’ Advisory Committee from 2018-2023 and the Chair of the Academy of Medical Royal Colleges, Trainee Doctors’ Group (ATDG) from 2021-2024. Matthew is actively involved in different pathology societies, including ‘Deputy Meetings Secretary’ of the BDIAP, Editor of ‘ACP news’, and the Trainee Representative for the British Neuropathological Society, and has been the recipient of awards for public engagement, research, and science communication. He featured in the Pathology Power List 2021.
