Kevin A. Roth

[1][2][3] He was the President of the American Society for Investigative Pathology from 2014-2015,[4] and performed research for over three decades on apoptotic cell death in neural development, neurodegenerative disease, and tumors of the nervous system.

He trained as a neuropathologist[6] at Washington University School of Medicine / Barnes-Jewish Hospital.

After his training, Roth ultimately rose to the rank of tenured full professor in the Department of Pathology and Immunology at Washington University School of Medicine.

[4] His research focused on defining the molecular pathways regulating neuronal cell death during development and in disease conditions.

His laboratory helped define the role of both apoptotic and non-apoptotic cell death pathways in development and neurodegenerative disease.
