Histology
About
About the course
Course content
The course is an introduction to the fabric of tissues of vertebrates. Seen in association with the basic courses in cell biology, physiology and functional anatomy the course will contribute to a comprehensive understanding of the structures and functions of tissues.
Tissues and organs will be studied using light microscopy slides. Students will make their own slides and follow the process from dissection to ready slide. The course provides a foundation for subsequent studies in histology, and familiarises the students with basic light microscopy techniques.
Learning outcome
On completion of the course the students should be familiar with the fabric of tissues of vertebrates. Students should also be familiarised with basic light microscopy techniques.
