    In 1920, Women's College Hospital established the Department of Laboratories. Dr. Vivian Marvin Laughlen was appointed Chief of Laboratories (1920-1945). Dr. Laughlen was succeeded by Dr. Eva Mader MacDonald (1945-1952), Dr. Alice Gray (1952-1980), and Dr. Ali H. Qizilbash (1980-1981).

    In 1981, the Department of Laboratories was divided into two new departments: the Department of Clinical Laboratories and the Department of Pathology. Dr. Kathleen Givan was appointed Chief of Clinical Laboratories (1981-1992). She was succeeded by Dr. Mary Vearncombe (1993-1999).
