Please RSVP to Dr. Ruth Sullivan
with the date/time you plan to attend.

Dr. Ruth Sullivan, Veterinary Pathologist, leads a series of 1-hour tutorial/discussion groups each month to provide histology support to researchers on campus.

Groups will review the normal histology of the focus tissue and discuss and review common neoplasms of the tissue in animal models (primarily mouse along with some rat).  Tissue from experimental animals other than rodents (for example zebrafish) can be brought to relevant sessions.

Anyone interested in attending is welcome.  Each session is limited to 4 attendees, due to the size of the microscope.  Anyone interested in coming should RSVP Dr. Ruth Sullivan
