Internship Anatomic Veterinary Pathologist information

What is the difference between Internship Anatomic Veterinary Pathologist vs Veterinary Pathologist?

AspectInternship Anatomic Veterinary PathologistVeterinary Pathologist
CredentialsTypically veterinary degree, completing internshipVeterinary degree, board certification in pathology
Work EnvironmentTraining setting, supervised by senior pathologistsIndependent or team-based diagnostic labs, research
Industry UsageEducational and training programs, internshipsDiagnostic labs, research institutions, academia

The Internship Anatomic Veterinary Pathologist is a training position for veterinary graduates gaining experience in pathology. In contrast, a Veterinary Pathologist is a fully qualified professional responsible for diagnosing animal diseases, often with board certification. The internship provides foundational skills, while the veterinary pathologist performs independent diagnostic work and research.

Job description

About Neuralink:
We are creating devices that enable a bi-directional interface with the brain. These devices allow us to restore movement to the paralyzed, restore sight to the blind, and revolutionize how humans interact with their digital world.
Team Description:
Join the Preclinical team at Neuralink, where our mission is to generate high-quality safety, biocompatibility, and performance data for cutting-edge brain-computer interface (BCI) technologies through rigorous, ethical, and GLP-compliant research studies. The Veterinary Pathologist plays a critical role in this mission by delivering expert histopathologic analysis, diagnostic pathology services, and pathology expertise to evaluate device-tissue interactions, tissue responses to implanted BCI components (such as microelectrode arrays and threads), and overall device safety. This role works closely with Veterinary Medicine, Animal Care, Engineering, Translational Research, and Regulatory teams to support study design, data interpretation, regulatory submissions, and continuous device refinement.
Job Description and Responsibilities:
The Veterinary Pathologist will provide critical diagnostic, analytical, and regulatory pathology support for Neuralink's preclinical programs. This role ensures high-quality histopathologic data generation and compliance for all research activities supporting the development of Neuralink medical devices. Responsibilities include:
  • Perform necropsies, tissue collection, and tissue examinations for preclinical studies; ensure high-quality samples for histopathologic evaluation of device implantation sites and other non-target tissues.
  • Conduct thorough gross and microscopic (histopathologic) examination of tissues with emphasis on device-tissue interfaces, foreign body responses, inflammation, gliosis, neuronal viability, other changes in the central nervous system and surrounding structures relevant to implanted brain-computer interfaces.
  • Interpret pathological findings, establish diagnoses, and prepare comprehensive, regulatory-quality pathology reports documenting methods, observations, interpretations, diagnoses, and recommendations suitable for internal leadership review, external peer review, and inclusion in GLP study reports for FDA premarket submissions (IDE, PMA, etc.)
  • Collaborate with Preclinical study directors, veterinarians, and researchers on the design and execution of safety studies in accordance with FDA guidance and relevant standards; contribute pathology expertise to protocol development, endpoint selection, and study governance.
  • Ensure all pathology activities comply with GLP regulations (21 CFR Part 58), including accurate specimen tracking, chain of custody, documentation, SOP adherence, equipment calibration/maintenance, and quality control; support QA audits and potential inspections of pathology data and processes.
  • Lead or actively participate in investigations of unexpected tissue findings, adverse events, and device-related abnormalities; perform root cause analysis and contribute pathology data for device design refinements.
  • Provide pathology consultation and subject matter expertise to cross-functional teams (Engineering, Clinical, Regulatory, Animal Care) regarding tissue collection best practices, fixation methods, handling of implanted devices, and interpretation of challenging histopathology findings.
  • Maintain laboratory equipment, develop and update pathology SOPs and protocols, perform routine quality control, and ensure a safe, organized, and compliant laboratory environment (including BSL-2 practices for handling animal tissues and potentially hazardous materials).
  • Stay current with advancements in veterinary pathology, digital pathology, medical device regulatory science, biocompatibility assessment, and CNS histopathology; participate in continuing education and contribute to scientific knowledge through publications or presentations where appropriate.
  • Support training and mentorship of technical staff, research associates, and junior team members on necropsy techniques, tissue handling/processing, histopathology slide reading, digital pathology tools, and GLP-compliant documentation practices.

Required Qualifications:
  • Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM/VMD) or equivalent degree.
  • Board certification (Diplomate) or board eligibility to sit for the ACVP certifying examination in Anatomic Pathology.
  • Strong knowledge of veterinary anatomy, physiology, and pathology with demonstrated proficiency in gross necropsy, tissue trimming/processing, and microscopic histopathologic examination across common laboratory animal species.
  • Experience working in or supporting a GLP-regulated (or similarly quality-controlled) preclinical environment, with understanding of 21 CFR Part 58 requirements for nonclinical laboratory studies.
  • Excellent diagnostic skills, attention to detail, and ability to interpret complex and subtle pathological changes, particularly those associated with implanted medical devices, foreign body reactions, and CNS tissue responses.
  • Proven ability to author clear, thorough, well-organized, and defensible pathology reports suitable for regulatory review and inclusion in GLP final study reports.
  • Strong written, verbal, and interpersonal communication skills with ability to convey complex pathology findings and recommendations effectively to diverse audiences (veterinarians, engineers, researchers, regulatory specialists, leadership).
  • Physical capability to perform necropsies and handle animal specimens (including lifting/manipulating carcasses as needed), work in a BSL-2 or appropriate laboratory environment, and tolerate exposure to chemicals, fixatives, and potentially hazardous biological materials while following safe work practices.

Preferred Qualifications:
  • 1+ years of relevant post-residency or industry experience in veterinary pathology, ideally in a medical device, biotechnology, pharmaceutical, or CRO setting supporting preclinical safety assessment of implanted devices, combination products, or neurotechnologies.
  • Experience evaluating histopathology in the ovine (sheep) model, particularly for large animal preclinical studies of implanted neurodevices.
  • Direct experience evaluating histopathology of implanted medical devices, with strong preference for experience assessing CNS or neural tissue responses to microelectrodes, threads, or similar BCI components (e.g., gliosis, neuronal loss, device migration).
  • Prior experience contributing pathology endpoints and reports to regulatory submissions (IDE, GLP study reports, premarket applications) or participating in FDA interactions/audits related to pathology data.
  • Familiarity with FDA guidance documents on animal studies for medical devices, biocompatibility evaluation (ISO 10993 series), and toxicologic pathology principles.
  • Experience developing, validating, or optimizing tissue processing/histology pipelines, SOPs, or high-throughput workflows in a regulated preclinical setting.
  • Subspecialty training, interest, or certification in neuropathology, toxicologic pathology, or related fields.
  • Experience supporting or leading pathology aspects of GLP studies, including coordination with external peer review pathologists and preparation of reports for regulatory agencies.
