Since 2017, the Molecular Histology and Perinatal Screening Unit has been established and operates within the Laboratory (Government Gazette 3298/20.09.2017, Issue B).
Introductory Page
The Laboratory operates within the Morphological – Clinical-Laboratory Sector of the Department of Medicine. Its purpose is the study of fetal tissues and membranes in embryos with or without congenital malformations, as well as the molecular investigation of various pathological conditions. The Laboratory is located in Building 3 of the Preclinical years, ground floor, in Dragana – Alexandroupolis.
