Professor Emeritus of Pathology Jeffrey Everitt, DVM, DACVP, FIATP, served as an associate editor for Volume 5 of the fourth edition of Haschek and Rousseaux's Handbook of Toxicologic Pathology. This authoritative handbook provides insights into the integration of structure and functional changes in tissues associated with the response to pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and biologics.
The text serves as a cornerstone reference in the field of toxicologic pathology, guiding pathologists, toxicologists, research scientists, and regulatory professionals in evaluating and making decisions about drugs, biologics, medical devices, and a wide range of chemicals, including agrochemicals and environmental contaminants.
Everitt has served on many national and international panels concerning toxicologic pathology, particularly on the effects of inhaled particulates in animal models. He previously served as an ad hoc member of the Science Advisory Committee on Chemicals (SACC) of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
In addition, Everitt is a diplomate of the American College of Veterinary Pathologists (ACVP) and a fellow of the International Academy of Toxicologic Pathologists, where he was recently elected as the North American Regional Director for the period 2026 through 2028. He is also a member of the Duke Cancer Institute (DCI).
