Pioneer Perspective: Kirsten Grønbæk
In this Pioneer Perspective, haematologist Kirsten Grønbæk discusses her research into the earliest stages of blood cancer, the promise of preventive interventions, and the mentors, resilience, and scientific curiosity that have shaped her career.
Opinion Piece: The Scientific Power of Emotion
In this Opinion Piece, the authors reflect on the role of curiosity as a driving force in scientific discovery and innovation. Challenging the notion that science must be entirely dispassionate, the piece argues that curiosity is not a distraction from rigorous research, but one of its most powerful foundations. From groundbreaking discoveries to transformative therapies, it explores why protecting curiosity-driven research remains essential for scientific progress and future breakthroughs.
Call for Papers: Focus Issue on Health and Disease
The Journal of Pathology, Microbiology and Immunology (PMI Journal) invites submissions for a new focus issue on Quorum Sensing in Health and Disease.
Call for Papers: Focus Issue on Innovative Pathology Research for Translating Disease Mechanisms into Clinical Therapeutic Strategies
The Journal of Pathology, Microbiology and Immunology (PMI Journal) invites submissions for a new focus issue on innovative pathology research for translating disease mechanisms into clinical therapeutic strategies.
We welcome original research articles, reviews, and perspectives that advance translational pathology and bridge the gap between disease mechanisms and therapeutic development.
Pioneer Perspective: Kendra Rumbaugh
Professor Kendra Rumbaugh is a leading microbiologist whose research has advanced our understanding of wound infections, biofilms, and bacterial communication. In this Pioneer Perspective, she reflects on the mentors who shaped her career, the challenges of overcoming self-doubt, and the importance of supporting the next generation of researchers.
The Scientific Power of Emotion
We risk sidelining the very force that drives discovery: curiosity. PMI Editors-in-Chief makes the case for protecting curiosity-driven research as essential to true innovation – not despite its uncertainty, but because of it.

Meet the next generation of pathologists: Martin Stampe, Copenhagen
Martin Stampe is a 30-year-old Danish medical doctor and PhD student at the University of Copenhagen and the Department of Pathology, Rigshospitalet. His research focuses on digital pathology, particularly how artificial intelligence can enhance and support routine microscopy in lung cancer diagnostics. Martin and his team have recently submitted a PMI article exploring how AI can be applied in an interpretable and clinically meaningful way during everyday microscopy workflows.
