Pathologist

Dr. Robert RiddellDr. Robert Riddell graduated from the University of London (St. Bartholomew's Hospital) and trained in GI Pathology at St. Mark's and St. Bartholomew's Hospitals in London. Following his Boards Examination, he went to the University of Chicago in 1974 as an Assistant Professor and was promoted to Associate Professor in 1979. In 1984, he moved to McMaster University Medical Centre in Hamilton, Ontario as Professor of Pathology (now Molecular Medicine and Pathobiology). He also was Chief of Service for Anatomical Pathology at McMaster University Medical Centre. In 2001, he moved to Mount Sinai Hospital where he is Head of the Sections of Gastrointestinal Pathology and Immunopathology and Professor of Laboratory Medicine and Pathobiology at the University of Toronto.

Dr. Riddell has over 230 publications which are largely in gastrointestinal pathology. Many of them are in inflammatory bowel disease. In 1983, Dr. Riddell was lead author on the paper defining and grading dysplasia in inflammatory bowel disease, a system that is not only still in use but has been extended to other part of the gastrointestinal tract. He is interested in all forms of inflammatory and neoplastic disease throughout the GI tract. He has edited or written 5 books, which include a two volume "bible" on gastrointestinal pathology and its clinical implications with Drs. Klaus Lewin and Wilfred Weinstein at UCLA.

This book is currently being re-written. He is also the lead author of the AFIP Fascicle on tumors of the intestines. Dr. Riddell directs an annual week long gastrointestinal pathology course that has now been running for almost 30 years. He is a frequent speaker and talks about intestinal disease in both the upper and lower gastrointestinal tract both nationally and internationally. He has numerous on-going projects including gastroesophageal reflux disease, indeterminate colitis, drug-associated colitis, and molecular changes in dysplasia in ulcerative colitis and the pathology of motility disorders.
