Dr. Al Habeeb completed his anatomical pathology training at McMaster University in 2007, followed by dermatopathology fellowship training at University of Toronto. He has been a dermatopathologist at UHN since 2008.

Current research interest is in molecular biology and cytogentics of skin malignancies particularly melanoma and the implementation of molecular testing for diagnostic and targeted therapeutic purposes as part of personalized medicine.

Other areas of research include evaluation and implementation of whole slide imaging (WSI) as a tool for teledermatopathology
