COURSE DESCRIPTION - This course studies the microscopic anatomy of animal tissues and organs as elucidated by brightfield microscopy. The laboratory also encompasses a broad range of cytological and microtechnique procedures. PREREQUISITES - Principles of Biology I and II GOAL: to prepare mammalian tissues and stain slides using cytological, histochemical, and immunocytochemical techniques and to study human microscopic anatomy of these tissues and commercial preparations. TEXTS: HISTOLOGY: A TEXT AND ATLAS, 2005, 5th ed., Ross, M.H. and Pawlina, W., Lippincott/Williams and Wilkins, Philadelphia, PA.COLOR ATLAS OF BASIC HISTOLOGY, 2003, 3rd ed., Berman, I., Lange Medical Books/McGraw Hill, New York. STUDENT ASSESSMENT: 50% HISTOLOGY
