Start NowHistology is the branch of biology that focuses on the study of living tissues. In medicine, histology is narrowed down to the study of human tissues in their normal state. Tissues are also studied in the broader context of their organ systems.
In this course, the student will be introduced to the types of tissues that make up the main organ systems in the human body. As the course progresses, the student will get a better grasp on the concept of cell specialization.
For optimal comprehension, the student will be required to have preliminary knowledge of molecular and cellular biology and biochemistry. The parallel study of relevant physiology topics is highly encouraged.
Prof. Geoffrey Meyer is a Professor and Senior Honorary Research Fellow in the School of Human Sciences at the University of Western Australia.
He obtained his PhD from the University of Western Australia in 1981. Currently, he is the Coordinator for Histology in the Federative International Program for Anatomical Terminologies (FIPAT) of the International Federation of Associations of Anatomists (IFAA).
Due to his achievements, he earned the Australian University Teaching Award and has received teaching fellowships from the University of Western Australia and the Australian Learning and Teaching Council.
Within Lecturio, Dr. Meyer teaches courses on Histology.

Good but the way of teaching is not effective like other professors
Very informative. Brief, to the point. Clear explanation to facilitate understanding.
Too inprecise In the lecture You should point out exactly the structures This doesnt help for exams.
5 stars for Dr. Meyer! Excellent explanation & good structure! Thank you!!!

5 stars for Dr. Meyer! Excellent explanation & good structure! Thank you!!!
perfectly summarised , help us to take a clear outline , moreover love presented way..
Dr. Meyer, you are awesome!!! I never thought that I will start to like Histology! The entire chapter is great! My favourite part is your interactive technique bonus, used in Esophagus video! :)
Awesome Professor! Loved the lectures. Great pictures too! Thank you:)
I like it I’m still learning but I’m very grateful for the material and content matter
This was one of the most detailed explanations of blood filtration I have seen. Really well done.
the video is in depth explanation explaining structures and function
This is helping me a lot getting a head start before resuming the semester. I just found out I can actually bookmarks specific lecture videos I want! Thank you so much
Every concept given in these concept page ia amazing and excellent.
Everything about this lecture is spot on, I liked it very much.
Professor, I thank you! You made this lecture so easy for me to understand that I kept on smiling to myself knowing that I now understand this lecture perfectly well. I like the way you demonstrated the parts of the lips by actually showing/pointing to it on yourself. For initially before I watched your lecture, I did not know where the vermilion border was, etc. Thank you for enriching my knowledge with such vital information. God bless you
I learned alot from the Professor. I wish I had started using Lecturio earlier. Thanks so much!
He is excellent, explain everything in a very organized systemic way.
Thanx for making me understand lots of things I did not know before. I appreciate it alot.
Great lecture, for I learnt somethings from the lecture. Thank you Professor.
very clearly explained. perfect to complete your understanding about this topic
His lectures are always amazing, simple and so clear! Thank you
Nicely explained, easy to understand and images were clear enough to find out what was being taught
the way the prof explains the content is a bit nitty gritty the prof is not very good at commenting should you have queries
Español: Fácil de aprender. Conciso y directo. Buena infografía. English: Easy to learn. Concise and direct. Good infographic.
Because sir showed diagramatic picture along with histology slide That make it very helpful
you have to write everything to the material.only pictures present
Very well explained. Physiological aspects of digestion & absorption combined with histological study makes it easy to comprehend the process. Eg. Circulation of blood & bile to & from the liver very well explained.
Not good didn't understand anything it should be in easy and simple wording
I chose this rating because I understood the topic easily, thanks to the clear explanations and the organization of the topics
Thanks to this course I managed to get a really good grade in my exam, and most importantly I really understood the topic
Dear Dr Meyer, you have made my histology course so much easier and understandable! I cannot thank you enough!
yup-side by side slide comparison so important bc histo is all in the details
Well broken down. Thank you. I love that he takes the time to analyze the explanations.
There should be more detail about the gross anatomy of the nasal cavity
Thank you so much Dr. Meyer . I did well on my exam because of your videos. They were simple and it makes me understand better difficult topics. For now, you are my favorite ????.
Great information I am learning so much It was very interesting
Histology was and always will be my strong suit in medical school, but this was a much-needed review in prep for my upcoming exam. Also, for those who are IMG's and might not have the best of professors, Lecturio has got you covered when it comes to learning what you need to know to do well on exams in year 1 and 2...or if you are having to re-teach yourself like me (upside down smiley).
Histology explained really well. At each step letting us know what is going to be explained is really good.
There is a lot of information, and that is good, but the slides don't mention those information briefly.
Excellent lecture, review was clear, engaging and concise. Thank you.
It's pretty precise and I appreciate the professor showing images while explaining.
Excellent explanations and clear, thank you! Pretty cool you got the histology guide guy to make a lecture.
I love this app in general Actually everything was pretty amazing Histology & anatomy explanation But there is a problem with the quality Its not fully HD but i understand that the video is old a bit but fine & where are the tonsils explanation ?, they are a part of the lymphatic system
I like the picture and descriptions. It could be a little more in depth but overall really good.
Didn’t go into very broad details. Very superficial. Would love if there were more microscope tissues.
Dr. Meyer is great! His lectures help me so much in preparing for class and understanding. I have really struggled with the eye, so this was a life-saver.
It is so slow that I can't focus. Also at the end of lecture functions of endothelium is written on the slide but not explained by the teacher. I think one should mention what is written on slide while doing a presentation.
good expression best teacher thx for everything we like you man
Overall good course with an extraordinary professor with brief and precise explanations of the different topics. The only thing I would add not only to histology course, but to Lecturio is more questions in the q bank. Or different type of questions. Most of them are straight forward from the video and not enough critical thinking in my opinion. I would like to see an improvement in this area
THIS TEACHER TEACHES IN A EXCELLENT WAY , VERY EASY TO UNDERSTAND , AS SIMPLE AS POSSIBLE .. PERFECT FOR ME :)
I really like it, the simplified images makes it quite easy to understand and the slides are well explained. Reasons are given on why the slides look the way they are and how they might appear different from what they really are.
Literally you can not follow along at all. No idea how to figure out where on the image he is verbally referring to
great course, great professor, great subject. I thought I had learned a lot in cardiac histology, but still, I learned some more in this course. I really like it.
again, great professor, good course. I regret that the downloadable slides are not very dense, so that I can not use the slides to study for this course
This was a good general overview of the Lymphatic Tissue. Along with my textbook, this lecture was exactly what I needed.
Me gusta la clase pero los subtítulos son muy malos.
Good preview prior to classroom (more like online at this point) lecture for medschool
They are really all good; and great for medical school Students.
I really appreciate the labeled pictures. I really helped to understand concepts
gostei muito das classes, boa didatica, recomendo muito. algun dia espero que tenha audio em portugues ou espanhol.
Here is a quote from which describes Lecturio: "In order to take on this challenge, Lecturio created a high-quality digital medical education resource, which is affordable, adaptive, and personalized. We designed our platform with the needs of learners and faculty in mind, combined with the latest state-of-the-art learning technology and comprehensive monitoring and assessment features." The lecturer keeps saying that he is going to have the "anatomists" explain the structure in detail...so why are we wasting our money looking at this. I paid for a subscription to this site for "state-of-the-art learning technology." If a customer clicks on the video to see a presentation on the general structure of the eye, they shouldn't have to waste their time watching a PowerPoint with no pictures of the eye. It is an insult for customers to have this guy put up this type of presentation. My textbooks have better supplemental material .
This is what you read on Lecturio's site: "In order to take on this challenge, Lecturio created a high-quality digital medical education resource, which is affordable, adaptive, and personalized. We designed our platform with the needs of learners and faculty in mind, combined with the latest state-of-the-art learning technology and comprehensive monitoring and assessment features." STATE OF THE ART??? These are PowerPoint slides!!! The guy is talking about different structures and you have to pause the video to find what he is trying to reference! Get a pointer. Use an arrow. Show the viewer the exact location you want to emphasize. If I turned this type of presentation in for a grade, I would get it returned. Kahn Academy, Ken Hub...this is as low tech as you can get. I expected so much more. You are supposed to save us time. I hate writing this but other people have to know that this lecturer's delivery - I might as well get a text book out and read it to myself.
Dr. Meyer breaks down the lymph system in a way that is simple to understand and uses detailed pictures to clearly illustrate each section of the system. I work as a paramedic and feel like this course gave me my best understanding of the lymphatic system.
These lectures on the gastrointestinal histology were more than helpful to me, as they came in handy for, firstly, comprehending the overall picture and, secondly, for taking note on the details (such as the types of cells that make the gastric glands or the intestinal glands)
Hi The lectures have been prepared in a way that You can get sufficeint information
Very clear explanation and quick review after the topic explanation. Geoffrey also exposes tricks for remembering key items. I admire very much this professor.
He talks 6 minutes straight without changing a slide! It would be helpful to have bullet points in order to understand step by step what he is going to cover. Very bad teacher.
He presents a list of the lymphocytes without the natural killer cells! Afterwards, he refers to them as if we know what these cells are. He also refers to lymphocytes as "key players", writing below a list of cells that we do not know in which category they belong. Busy slides, difficult language, not able to get his message across.
Personally, I enjoyed the entire Histology review a lot, and would like to take this opportunity to thank Prof. G. Meyer for these lectures. All the best, Liliana B.
The video episodes are way too short, need to go back and start over every 3-4 minutes. I think there should be a option to view the topic in one full video. Otherwise the subjects are well covered in an understandable manner. Many thanks
great, but first watch the previous videos! made the difficult matter seem a lot easier
This series of lectures about the ear really need to be addressed, they make no sense, if you don't already have a complex knowledge of the ear. Once you have that this I guess is a good way to review, but then why am I paying for this for 2 years? If this is how it is supposed to be lecturio should be advertised as step prep company only, not as a supplement to lectures. Disappointed in the ear and hearing series of lectures.
I've watched this video 3 times and can not follow it. I expect better from this company.
i really enjoyed the lecture, it was very clear and easy to understand.
Excellent delivery with both understanding and memory of details maximized for student.
Nicely and easily explained. Thank you so much Dr Meyer
very easily and well explained lecture about the esophagus. thank you for the explination
Very well done, lecturer uses excellent visual aids and makes clear explanations
He is the best I have ever seen.The way he broke down the topic was really commendable
It's clear and understandable.I learnt nearly all of the topic
The video lectures helped me organize the information I already knew and filled the gaps in between. I appreciated how Dr. Wilson was concise and straight to the point with his lectures.
it was not bad, a bit simple and also generally wasn't compelling
Simple yet very nice explained . I felt like I learned it there and then
he he is too slow to explain.....difficulties in reading material ...........
an amazing course indeed, i have been struggling with histology for a long time, and this course clarified me a lot of things, so thank you:)
Very clear images and explanations. Enjoy the juxtaposition of histo slides with cartoons/illustrations. Appreciate this format far more than sitting for two hours of lecture with no checks for understanding (like Lecturio quizzes). Thank you for the work you do!
I Mean it provides the gist of the topics I'm looking for but it would be very nice if it could be a bit more detailed and a little more informative towards complexity Plus it would be really nice if more books could be added in your video search option Overall it is a nice experience
Es muy fácil de comprender y toca puntos esenciales, no se va por cuestiones que corresponden a clases más especializadas, se enfoca en el nivel exacto en el que está. Las imágenes histológicas y los esquemas son detallados y claros.
I felt like someone read me a text loudly. It would be much better, if you try to show or point what structure you are talking about. In this way, everything stay as complicated as I read textbook.
gives u ability to recognize tissues and have better understanding of materials but could be better if contained a bit more details and makes it more suitable for review materials in no time.
I have watched this introduction about functions and structures of the respiratory sysem and i have tried to answer about question. I can say really a useful lecture. i like it
The party trick was a nice way to end the lecture. thank you, guys, for always giving your best to explain a topic.
Simple and efficient, thanks for the french traduction, your video and quizz help me a lot !
It is really fascinating with the clarity that is expressed and the rhythm as it goes, if the proper attention and reason is given, the presentation is totally understandable
I loved his lecture . He makes it very simple to understand and he focus on the important things .
Its a good lecture but histology is complicated and I wish they would use arrows to point at structures he is talking about instead of just saying look at the right hand side. Or at least put in more labels.
Helped to understand everything, and I like the fact that I can speed the video up but still understand it all!!
Thank you for all these amazing lectures and for making me love Histology.
VERY WELL EXPLAINED VERY INFORMATIVE LOVED IT REALLY HELPED ME
I chose this liking because it is like he is reading straight off of a board in front of him and sometimes it takes him too long to get to the point of the subject possibly because he is having problems reading the material in front of him.
The sir Geoffrey explains very well but i find it difficult to follow the explination on the histalogic image due to the lack of pointing out the structures i am not sure if i am looking at the right thing and i am always at doubt. Pls use pointers and thx for the attention.
This was so easy to grasp, that you so much!
clear intro, to the point and simple to understand, very simple
It´s a great review!! It catched me since his first words, Now I´ll take the entire course.
Very clear explanation, understandable, good examples, clear slides and pictures.
Finally understood how the heart works! Great job at explaining :)
Absolutely wonderful, the best histology teacher in the world. I love his classes
I love this course (Lecturio) it’s very helpfully and concentrated by amazing information and knowledge. I recommend this course for all medical staff.
Pointer helps a lot with histology. The instructor was clear and concise.
To friends who are interested in learning medicine on net
this lecture is very Comprehensive , concise and easy to follow
the course is histology the guy should at least point to stuff on the histological slides instead of just using a powerpoint. very basic level
Dr Meyer did a great job summarizing the major histological divisions of the GI tract. The lecture was clear and concise and really cleared up some confusion I was having.
liked it because it was easy to follow. professor gives you a chance to absorb information.
Pointless explaining structures if it's difficult following which structure on the histological slide is being described. Pointer needs to be used.
Very clear! I am not reading my histology books anymore. Hahaha
cheap lecture slides put key points and words instead of just whole bunch of diagrams. at least label the diagrams
he has a pleasant voice, good tempo in speaking , clear explanations
Great lecture. You make relatively complex notions seem simple. Thank you!
Very knowledgeable professor who also understands to teach his subject in an accessible way. His course helped me a lot to get a good basic understanding of Histology
He knows how to explain difficult concepts. I now understand histology of the kidney better.
Clear, concise and good lecture. The professor is very easy to follow, and does a good job emphasizing what he thinks important.
Wellllll i liked the lecture but most importantly i understood, it's waaaay better then reading +12 pages ????...i think i'm gonna buy the full subscription next month(i should have done this a loooong time ago)
The excellent pictures helps a lot. Easy understanding. Very good professor.
there is no subtitle and marks on the slide are not good enough to understand lecture
Thank you for these organized, concise, and well-prepared lectures, Dr. Meyer !!!
A Well-done explanation of Lipid Absorption ! Thank You, Dr. Meyer !
good and concise explanations more histological images would be appreciated
best of the best! everything is well explained in a short time! saved me a lot of time and understood GIT so well!
wonderful lecture so far am enjoying histology of organ system and the diagrams are very well done!
very well explained! i enjoyed this lecture so much better than all other lectures of histology
questions don't go along well with the lecture sometimes questions pops out before discussed. AND please mark. i kept getting lost and try to figure which part you're talking about.
Absolutely outstanding lectures. he is really the best histology professor. thank you so very much sir
This is really good, and easy to understand, thank you.
This section of Dr. Meyer's lecturers are clear, well organized and beautifully presented.
Good but not perfect regarding figures and histological slides. I expect more visualized explanation to understand structures than verbal or written explanation
Very good lecture. Clear presentation, properly indicated so very easy to follow.
Difficult to follow many of Dr. Meyer's course because of poor marking of the area under discussion. Also, questions jump into the middle of lecture, very disruptive.
It was intermediate in terms of quality Many structures were explained theratically not on figure
Dr. Meyer explained really well, especially the olfactory epithelium, was really interesting!
Really good theoretical overview of the subject, but id would've been better to include a bit more histological slides. But still, strong basic knowledge is expressed in these videos. Loved them.
Beautiful Glomerular diagram , I love this diagram . Only one more star left to be 5-star is lack of clinicopathological corelation , Such as the common nephrotic or nephrotic disease .
Well explained and very simple to follow. I would definitely recommend this course to any medical student.
Very good lectures, but one small suggestion to get this lecture to a full 5 stars. The cardiology section is lacking a lecture on endothelial cell function and properties. The Pawlina Histology text includes this subject matter in the Cardiology chapter.
?ts so d?rect clear and understanble...one of best h?stology lectures so far
Thank you for the lecture! Finally this topic is clear to me
Excellent knowledge Amazing lecturer, understands how to contextualize different concepts and aspects of the knowledge. Understand how to BUILD the knowledge on itself.
Excellent, I really like Professor Meyer's explanation and the images are superb quality.
So easy to understand, and dinamic i will recommend this lecture
its not 5 stars rating because it didn't have pratical correlation, like the one of skin. But I would recommend.
Good lectures, nice and understandable. Very good slides. I like the voice of lecturer.
Very informative, great lecturer, easy to understand and perks the interest throughout the videos!
Monotonous, otherwise very clear and succinct explanations. The monotony requires extra focus from the listener.
Good lecture but too montonus,looks a person is reading out the textbook
eloquent and calm voice which is easy to listen and understand. its great to have lectures which are easy listening like this. not too fast paced to follow and also not to slow that i fall asleep. thank you .
This is very unclear and annoying, everything is everywhere and is hard to figure out what we need to do
I think that this professor has done a great job in making the concepts easier to understand! These lectures work well when paired with the WHEATER'S Functional Histology textbook
chose this rating cause dr. meyer's the best. (get rid of the minimum word number requirement, and the 'headline' requirement, and you will likely get a lot more feedback)
THANK U SIR FOR AN AWESOME LECTURE . It was vey concise and easy to understand
I really do enjoy the way the app is constructed and the bookmatcher feature is absolutely amazing. This app has allowed me to regain control of information I had learned previously and order it in the manner it requires for understanding and ultimately, utilisation. Every medical student could benefit immediately by using this app.
I will choose Lecturio over any other online medical lectures. Your team of lecturers are so Superb. This lecture has thought me a lot and all details I need to know about Cardiovascular histology. Thanks a lot Dr. Meyer and Lecturio.
Everything is perfectly explained. Maybe I've missed Pineal Gland but I don't have more words for all the videos that I'm watching from Lecturio. Is a new system to learn, and in my opinion, I'm learning more than in classes because you can stop the video in any time. Thanks
A broad, comprehensible lecture on the lymphoid tissue and organs in the body
The video was very helpful and the information communicated was good. But, a deeper explanation of the right answer would be helpful.
Needs more review questions, like the rest of the lectures.
It's well categorized and to the point. It saves a lot of time
Being a visual learner, I found this course the best I've ever done at University. Plus the images are very clear and everything is ordered.
Prof. Geoffrey Meyer is amazing, he is exactly the kind of teacher I learn the most from. I have been using Lecturio as my main study resource for Histology and so far I've been doing great in that class and everything I've learned, or at least most of it, is staying in my memory for a long time.
Very concise and clearly explained. The material is presented in an organized outline so you don't become confused about what exactly is being explained. I lost hours with other materials and so I was reluctant to watch a 40 minute lecture on the areas that I needed help on, but it was well worth the time it takes (which is a med students most valuable commodity!)
Individual components explained and well reasoned to make the information easy to understand
