This course is designed for those studying for their specialist portfolio in haematology, but is suitable
as a refresher for those returning to the subject or an update for those already qualified.
Day one deals with the proper use and care of the microscope, staining and stain QC/ trouble
shooting and normal haematopoiesis. This day will contain a workshop on normal morphology.
Day two will discuss the pre-analytical variables that can affect the sample and result, disease
process and the associated morphological abnormalities and the clinical significance of the
generated report for the patient, be it negative or abnormal.
These two days can be taken together or individually as suits the learners needs.

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.

The course runs over four half-days, plus one optional additional Clinical Module on the following Monday. The course is suitable for those who are relatively new to flow cytometry and who wish to expand their experience with applications and specific analysis.
