BIO 328 - Introduction to Histology (3 cr.)

Histology is the study of tissues. The course combines ideas from basic histotechnology and functional histology, and gives students the opportunity to develop several skills related to tissue slide interpretation. In addition to hands-on experience with microscopes, to study the four major mammalian tissue types and how they associate to form organs, students learn about important technical aspects of histology such as tissue processing, embedding, sectioning and staining.
