  1. Welcome to Biology 523: Histology Please take and fill out an index card: Side 1: large print--> first name & last initial Side 2: name: major: career goal: your hopes for the course: information about you that I should know:

  2. Biology 523: Histology, 4 credits Instructor: Dr. Elizabeth Connor 353 Morrill IV South telephone: 545-4855 email: econnor@bio.umass.edu office hours: by appointment

  3. ANNOUNCEMENTS • Flu can include: fever, cough, sore throat, runny or stuffy nose, • body aches, headache, chills, and fatigue • Preventing flu• Get vaccinated. • Wash your hands often.• Cough or sneeze into a tissue or your elbow instead of into your hands. • Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth, to reduce the spread of germs.• Don't share food, drinks, utensils and other similar items.• If you’re sick, stay home!!! Email me about your situation and we will work it out.

  4. OBJECTIVES #1- ANATOMY: To understand the structural basis for the functioning of a living organism Close relationship between structure and function

  5. GROSS ANATOMY (macroscopic) HISTOLOGY (microscopic) ANATOMY

  6. OBJECTIVES #2- TECHNICAL ADVANCES: To appreciate that our ability to answer questions is driven by the development of new technology

  7. Why study histology? What are the uses of histological techniques and microscopic tissue identification?

  8. Tools of the Histologist

  9. Requirements: Tissue Preparation Start with an organism: Organ->Tissues-> Cells-> Molecules fixation/sectioning/ staining Imaging (Microscopy) Interpretation - cell biology - physiology - structure of tissues - organ structure/function Visual Integration **A challenging skill**

  10. Teaching Assistants: Bryan Olson bolson@nsm.umass.edu Undergraduate Lab Assistants

  11. Required Textbook: Histology: A Text and Atlas, Ross, Kaye, and Pawlina 6th Edition, Lippincott Williams & Wilkins ISBN 0-683-30242-6 *** BRING TEXTBOOK TO LAB ***

  12. Many free online histology materials are available! Jejenum Links on Course Webpage Recommend Histology World Recommend MedPics UCSD

  17. Laboratory Experience (120 Points) Group Lab Project #2 Sectioning and staining of frozen and paraffin-embedded tissue of a rat organ. Techniques: microtome sectioning, frozen sectioning with cryostat, staining, immunohistochemistry, fluorescence microscopy, bright field microscopy, imaging, image processing. Assessment: Group Oral Presentation: In class (10 pts) Individual Written Project Report: (20 pts)

  18. First lab: Tuesday, January 31st or Wednesday, February 1st To prepare for lab- Read Lab 1: Microscopy and Imaging Think about project partners (3/group)

  19. Secrets of Success • -Attend every class and every lab. • -Come to class and lab prepared. • Ask questions. • Complete all assignments. • Review & study material after each lecture. • Answer review questions. • -Attend help and review sessions. • -Identify study partners.

  22. ACCESS TO ISB 264 Exceptions: it will be in use by other courses on: Monday and Thursday 1:25pm-4:25pm Friday 3:35pm-4:35pm ……….And some other times to come

  23. Challenge: Identify tissues. (Epithelial, Nervous, Muscle, Connective Tissue) Identify composite of tissues as an organ. Use appropriate descriptive language and terms. Understand the appropriate use of techniques to study material at the histological level

  24. Orientation and Plane of section

  25. CROSS SECTION Orientation and Plane of section LONGITUDINAL SECTION

  26. Challenges of Interpreting Plane of Section = Organ = Surrounding Tissues

  27. Challenges of Interpreting Plane of Section = Organ = Surrounding Tissues

  28. Staining techniques

  29. Magnification, Details of structure
