COURSE RATING

Take your online histology class

taught by Geoffrey Meyer, PhD

Understanding histology lays the groundwork for recognizing how tissue types contribute to the structure and function of organ systems. Connecting the large amount of information with the ability to visually recognize and distinguish tissues and cells comes with a significant learning curve.

This course covers the characteristics and functions of the body’s tissue types and how they make up the organ systems. Geoffrey Meyer, PhD, is the Coordinator for Histology in the Federative International Program for Anatomical Terminologies (FIPAT) and will break down the information in a systematic way, moving from the basic tissue types to the concept of cell specialization and the histology of each organ system, including cardiovascular, reproductive, gastrointestinal, and sensory histology. The course will also explain the techniques used to prepare tissues for study.

The combination of Video Lessons with interactive quiz questions, downloadable study materials, and a USMLE-style Qbank makes it easy to understand and retain the topics. By the end of this course, you will have a solid foundation in histology, preparing you to excel in your exams and making you ready for further clinical studies building on the understanding of tissues in their normal state.

“This course really helped me understand the tricky areas in my book. I prefer watching videos to reading and I like how the lecturer provides context and explanations for the things he mentions – it's not something I get in school.”

FAQs

What is histology?

Histology is the study of the microscopic structure of tissues and cells in living organisms. It involves the examination of thin sections of tissues under a microscope to observe the composition, arrangement, and function of cells and their surrounding extracellular matrix.

Why is histology important?

Histology helps researchers and clinicians understand the normal structure and function of tissues, as well as diagnose diseases based on pathological changes.

What is the difference between gross anatomy and histology?

Gross anatomy, also known as macroscopic anatomy, involves the study of body structures that can be seen with the naked eye, such as organs, bones, and muscles. It focuses on the organization, location, and relationships between different structures. In contrast, histology examines the microscopic structures of tissues and cells, revealing their composition, arrangement, and function. While gross anatomy provides a broad understanding of the body’s layout, histology offers a detailed view of tissues and cells, leading to a deeper understanding of physiological processes and disease mechanisms.

How to study histology

The most effective way to ace your histology class is to combine different learning modalities:
First, deep-dive into the topics with video lessons hosted by competent educators followed by Lecturio’s comprehensive Concept Pages. Next, apply what you’ve learned in practical situations by answering clinical case questions in the Qbank.
Lastly, make sure you retain information long-term by regularly reviewing your knowledge with Spaced-Repetition quizzes.
