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

Alternative times can also be arranged by contacting Dr. Sullivan, who is also available for consultation on any animal model histology or pathology question. 

The 1-hour sessions will discuss:

  • slides of normal tissue in question
  • slides of tumors or other relevant pathology
  • samples that attendees bring
  • relevant immunohistochemical stains and/or "special" histological stains

Groups will be held several times throughout the month so that all interested attendees can be accommodated.

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