Getting the most from your Confocal Course 2024

10/07/2024
This Course utilises many different sample types and fluorescent probes (DNA stains, classic antibody labels and fluorescent proteins) and these are chosen to best demonstrate particular problems and techniques. Focus is on the techniques they enable and the problems they generate, which will be applicable to any sample types

Light Microscopy Summer School - 2024

08/07/2024
The Light Microscopy summer school is an annual, residential two day course held at the University of York covering the principles of light microscopy. Participants are also trained in practical issues surrounding light microscopy. After introductory presentations, the course is taught predominantly through hands-on practical sessions.

Health Care Scientist Reporting in Histopathology: Stage A: GI, Gynae & Skin Exam Preparation Day

24/06/2024
This day has been designed specifically for those working towards the scientist reporting qualification and approaching or contemplating undertaking their stage A examination.
The day has been developed by Karen Ezard, Laura Saberton, Clare Raubusch who have experience in and have qualified through the part A examination.
There are Gastro-intestinal, Gynaecology and Skin modules which will run concurrently.
This is an exam preparation course. There will be advice and useful hints and tips from those that have taken the examinations along with an opportunity to discuss submitting a successful portfolio but it is not a morphology course. Participants will undertake a mock examination based around cases that might easily appear in the exam. Individual detailed feedback on performance will be provided to each candidate after the course either by e-mail or MS Teams, as per individual request.
The programme has been updated to make it suitable for those studying for the limited scope reporting options.

Beginners Immunohistochemistry 2024

12/06/2024
The course will provide a sound knowledge of the basics behind IHC and participants will leave having gained the skills to perform and manipulate IHC on tissue to identify one antigen/cellular component in a single tissue section.

Rapid On-Site Evaluation of Respiratory Cytology

22/04/2024
ROSE is an expanding field particularly in head and neck, EBUS and EUS. The benefits of ROSE are well documented and multiple guidelines for best practice promote ROSE. Appropriate planning of services and training of staff is essential for any service to run safely and effectively. This course will aim to help staff providing the service to understand its many. These training days are suitable for those preparing for the IBMS ROSE qualification but are equally suited to those who just want to learn more about the service they are helping to provide. The course covers core medical, technical, and morphological aspects of head and neck, EBUS and EUS ROSE.
We have organised these days so that participants can attend the whole course or just selected days.

Course Aims.
At the end of the course the participants should:
• Understand the sample collection and preparation methods for these samples.
• Understand pre and post analytical variables. • Assess adequacy.
• Be able to recognise basic cell types.
• Be able to distinguish between clearly benign cells and those requiring further assessment.
• Understand the ancillary techniques that can be used in each case.
• Understand the equipment requirements.
• Understand the health & safety and information governance requirements.
