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 and is categorized based on organ systems.
Histology involves attentive and deliberate observation to understand the basic structure of tissues and develop the ability to recognize them at a glance. In this course, the student will be introduced to all tissue types in the human body, including their characteristics and how these are related to their functions. Histological techniques to prepare tissues for study will also be discussed.
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.

Although I am at present an unknowledgeable M0, I appreciate how informative this introductory lecture is on mucous versus serous glands, and that an associated slide with images is presented. Histology is a notably difficult course in medical school, especially for people without prior exposure. What textbook(s) or online readings or articles would you recommend reading to further supplement learning of mucous and serous glands and epithelium throughout the human body?
Super helpful introduction and outline of future lectures. I appreciate the integrated instructions surrounding structure, location, function, and particular roles within the body. These lectures are helpful supplements to textbook readings.
While this was certainly a helpful lecture with breaking down differences between mature versus immature bone, not revealing the labeled diagram could prove detrimental to student learning. I noticed when quizzing myself that stronger learning might be taking place, but ultimately, I am not sure if everyone myself included could fully and adequately label every structure on this histological slide. Could you provide these diagrams with labels if they are not already somewhere? My histology atlas displays images differently.
Thanks doc, very useful for my exam that is coming up

The Lecturer explains cell structures clearly and show more examples,which makes learning easy and enjoyable. The best histology lecture.
Very detailed inormation, helps to get good understanding, thank You!
Muy interesante la conferencia, sin embargo la traducción de la misma al español es un poco ambigua.
I really like the way the teachers explain but the price for the premium is too expensive
I like how he made it easy!!! easy to digest easy to understand easy to memorize
Explanation excellent, diagrams excellent ????. However, the use of a pointer would be beneficial
Excellent! Thank you, Dr. Meyer for this lecture! Finally I don't have to memorize like a parrot and I started to like Histology ! :)
I'm a fan of Dr. Meyer! His lectures helped me a lot! His teaching style is awesome!
The lectures are quite easy to understand and remember. I’ve found what I’ve been looking for.
I appreciate the amount of digestible information in this video.
Very good explanation, to understand from beginning!!! I was really afraid about Histology, but Dr. Meyer's explanation gave me confidence and helped me to build a solid foundation, in order to learn more info later on. Thank you, Dr. Meyer!!! You are one of my favourite lecturer! P.S. Since I've studied integrating in my study plan Lecturio"s lectures by Dr. Meyer, my grades at Histology are significally improved!
Because it's not that much informative which i expected from this app for mbbs.
Easy to understand, easy to assimilate! Very helpful to start Histology from zero!
Very good explanation, info & system! I never thought that I will like to study Histology... Thank you, Dr. Meyer! Your way of teaching is awesome!!!
Finally, Histology is not looking like a nightmare to me! Thank you, Dr. Meyer!!! ???? Your lectures are awesome!!! ??????????
Thank you, Dr. Meyer for this playlist, as an introduction in Histology! I was affraid about Histo, thinking that will be hard to learn, but your pedagogical skills and the excellent explanation helps me to study from a different perspective and, more important, with pleasure this discipline! Thank you!!! ????????
Thank you very much! That was very helpful. I was really confused in class.
He is great, I have leant a lot from his easy and smooth teaching method Thanks
He is really good I have learned alot from him
liked liked liked liked liked liked liked liked liked liked liked liked liked liked liked liked
Builds up from basics. I like that method. I just wish his lectures had maybe a 3-4 speed option.
The explaination was really good. And I am beginning to understand it
Good but one star is less, this is because professor doesn't use cursor so it little bit difficult to understand
Very thorough explaining & lecturer is quick to respond highly recommended
Es una excelente conferencia parte desde lo básico para entender la histología que es la biología lo recomiendo para estudiantes que están haciendo la materia de histología y biología del primer año de la carrera de medicina .Muchas gracias por esta gran conferencia
The lecture on bone formation is not comprehensive and not very easy to digest The photos given by the lecturer is not very good in terms of illustrating the main concepts Having said all these, I recognise that making such lecture series is no easy task and the efforts put in by all staffs are commendable
This is an excellent course that breaks down the cell in detail. The teaching style is such that the lessons are taught as building blocks to the whole to eventually give you the total picture, understanding the cell in great detail.
excellent presentation explaining step by step important concepts at the right pace
I love it very much and excellent. is good for every students.
Magnificent! I love it! Especially the explanation of serosa? Nothing to say I have gentleman!!
It's got everything I wanted. Thank you! Very simple and precise. I appreciate your efforts Professor Meyer.
Good thing about this is that I love to study Lecturio helping me to consolidate my topics
Very well explained. Indepth explanation of purpose of organelles and their functions.
I think that this lesson was very interesting and easy to understand. 5 starts out of 5.
I agree that using a pointer might help, but the way he is describing the structures makes it very clear where to look to, so I don't agree at all with the 2-star rating. Also, the rest is very informative and nicely explained.
Well, I find it more useful. I got what I want from this lecture.
I like the way he explains details and yeah he's superb
It really allowed me to understand the tricky areas in my book. Also, I prefer watching videos to reading, so this allowed me to keep on track with my revision. Lastly, I really like how the lecturer provides context and explanations for the things he mentions. It's not really something I get in school.
made things clear and easy to learn in a short time
It's an amazing course.After a long time I got it but it's wonderful.
I like the lecturer very much, he’s very articulate ,doesn’t speed and has a simple and clear way of transferring information
excellent presentation in histology . i enjoy classes and it also help in my exam
Greatly assisted me in identifying the structure and function of bone organelles
yes it is some how not good but not bad also i do not know how to say
I'm feeling like discomfort . And the lecture is ok. I can't grasp and can't understand the concept clearly , effectively and perfectly.
I couldn't understand the concept and lecture clearly. There is something was missing.
I’m sorry I didn’t understand well in the lectures here. I checked you tube after these lecture and I understand now
All of the lectures by prof. Meyer are absolute blast and great experience.
It's An Good Overview And Histological Studies Of Ganglion.,But There is Need to Tell Stains Name
???? ???????? ????? ????? ??? ??? ?? ?????? ?? ??? ????? ??? ?????? ??????.
it was great to hear your story this makes the lecture even more interesting
Dr. Meyer is a great teacher, a lot from my experience with his videos regarding the introduction to the mammalian cell however, this video definitely left a lot to be discerned and was not very informative. Required me to do a lot of googling to make sense of much of these... Hard to follow and disappointing.
Explanation is good, but if there is more info in the PowerPoint material, it would be very nice.
So far this lecture series has been good but this particular lecture is so hard to follow. The explanations aren't clear, and the professor not pointing out anything is a problem. This has been pointed out in previous lectures as well, and the explanation given is that it's better for us if we try to find it ourselves. This is the first time we are coming across structures like this. It would be better if the professor at least points out an example to us for the first time and then allows us to identify it ourselves later. Otherwise, these lectures have been good except for this one.
I liked the professor very much. He's really brilliant and clear. He doesn't speak too quickly so it's easy to understand everything. I appreciated that eveytihing is explained starting from the plates which are very important in this course.
A good way of showing us how connective tissue are classified and their function
Wonderful teaching, it gave me broad knowledge about bone, and it's compatible
It was easy to understand, tho my first time studying muscle. And give me the confidence that muscle isn't hard to study
Simple and provides examples. Not packed with unwanted info. highly recommend.
Hola! No han solucionado el problema y se los avisaron hace 4 meses. 4 months ago Soe S. said you that the transcription has a problem of 1 minute of length.
very nice, I wish there was a pointer or a cursor when he was mentioning specific things from the diagrams shown on the screen. Otherwise, a very nice way of explaining
I chose 5 stars because the lectures were detailed and there were enough slides to explain every point. This really helped me while studying the topic in my textbook as I understood the slides and why they were so; why some looked pale and others look deeply stained, it's simply amazing. I although didn't like that some of the lectures had the last few seconds cut out (for me). I would recommend this lecture to those who have been trying to figure out why histological slides are why they are and have thus found histology "boring".
Liked it because they hv simplified all things that were giving me hard time, now I assure you that I can teach the next person.
For the short duration of the videos, less than an hour, important material is covered and in a way so it is possible to remember. There is even time for a little anecdote about muscle lengths, which makes it easier to remember afterwards. The kind of tricks good teachers use.
EXCELENTE. Muy bien explicado, desde principales datos de anatomía, hasta las meninges se entendió muy bien.
Very clear! Context and logical connections make it my go-to for understanding histology.
Its so easy to understand what will see before histology class, and simultaneously if you take class with PhD Georgina Cornwall its complete! Thanks
This lecture alone makes me want to recommend Lecturio to my peers.
I have nothing to say but that I like watching and learning from this course
i really like it there is all of what i need thank you
great to keep up with, love the questions after the video, wish there was more though
Awesome Explanation,Little bit slow And Less note But Hope For Improving...
Best diagram and explanation ever received. None of my teachers could explain so clear this concept. Thanks Dr. Meyer
Outstanding review of connective tissue! These videos are helping me get so much more out of my studies!
It was easy to learn and the speed was perfecy
Thanks... Dr Meyer very interesting and well presented information for rereading as a MD.
The content was sufficient; however, the content curator had done a bad job. The first lecture was placed at last and last lecture in the first.
Love the professor and absolutely love the way these lectures are taught. Comprehensive and easy to understand
it was very clear and simple. contained high yield info
Simple and precise description that deepen ones understanding and knowledge
Everything was clearly explained, especially helpful in the times of the pandemic. Thank you very much professor!
Nice lecture, very clear and specific. What every new student in this topic needs.
it was very informative,thank you so much proff.big up
I got a 10-10 at my Bone tissue test. Of course, I used my books for more information, but at first, I saw al the videos, did some notes, and then I rush into my textbook and realized that I knew the most part of the information. Beside the fact that we have to memorized all the details of everything, it was just amazing the feeling of truely understanding the subject. I really recommend it. And also, it would be nice if the Dr Meyer makes the others Tissue's lecture. Thank you so much!
Professional, enjoyable and interactive. I also liked that the professor uses research based teaching techniques.
Excellent presentation with perfect clarity in giving the essential details in an interesting way providing understanding of the function.
It's detailed for histology and he refers to the old teaching which is important for me who studied many years back so that I can be alerted to the changes I need to note.
best way to explain the mesenchyme, introducing stem cells and stressing most important points
Really found this clear and I have learned that there are compartments of stem cells in our body (intestine and perycites)
too confusing bring in another professor..............too confusing bring in another professor..............
He explains slowly and with good examples. I can notice his expertise in this area. I really like his lectures!
It's an easy and undestandable explanation, maybe more detail, but overall Good.
Great lecturer, can't recommend enough. I like his enthusiasm and clarity.
Simple, elegant, and easily gets to the point. Great lecturer.
histology lesson generally very good but some case like this one ? thing it better if prof meyer mention important thing more loudly or repeat all bone tissue on kind of table or set connections between subjects . By the way Prof Meyer explain all thing perfectly but not permanent in mind.
Concise. Good explanations that go past just describing the layers in the different tissues. Considering the modest length of the videos, it is noticeable how much knowledge is conveyed.
Excellent teacher, explained in a way that made sense and was easy to understand
The topics were explained quite good and therefore are very helpful in terms of getting a good idea of the structures. However, it could have been more detailed and more questions should have been and the end of each video. Nevertheless, the lecture was very helpful and it is definitely not the last one I will attend????????
Brilliant letter and word memo techniques presented, which make memorising this confusing content a lot easier!
Thank you so much for this video - it is absolutely beautiful and helpful!
It is nice to give more details they only show photos but Don't Tell those stains' name how that is satisfactory???
Because it has all the information i need and am understanding easily
I found Lecturio on Youtube and I enjoyed the way the information is presented in each video. This allows me to follow along.
I feel very confident with Lecturio The explanations of the content are very clear and precise
Complicated processes explained in a straight forward and understandable way clear, understandable, logical, systematically, enjoyable, straightforward, focused to the main topic , nice
very helpful! thanks! Only thing I would add to this are lymphopoiesis and markers for each lineage (Bcells are CD 19,20,21 positive).
CT proper: mesenchyme, lax fibrillary, dense fibrillary, reticular, elastic, adipose and pigment. Supporting CT: cartilage and bone. Trophic CT: blood and lymph.
Needs to use pointer during lecture. He's telling us to look at something but he's not pointing it out.
He explained thoroughly and I was able to understand without having to use the lecture. I really like the quizzes that are given. wish the quiz had more questions though
I felt like I was sitting in the classroom with the lecturer. He taught with precision and knowledge that I can easily guess what a histologic slide is with his explanations. Very grateful for this lecture
I love it. I learned quite a lot. Explained very well on a simple-minded person like me. And I was able to ace the quiz somehow. So yes, thank you very much!
Made personally complicated and hard-to-take-in material very clear for me. It was very helpful with the definitions of the histological terms and summarized the skin topic very well. I am getting ready for my first histology exam and this video helped a lot!
Includes the basis for understanding but touches on interesting details as well. Easy to follow and leaves a solid understanding!
Dr. Meyer has really interesting lectures and makes Histology fun! I think his pacing works well, and he has a natural and straightforward way of explaining concepts.
well put together esp the simple intro description of the skin
very interesting lecture and good lecturer I have benefited really , good luck
it was clear and concise easy to understand key points layed out very well
Excellent lecture and the way sir explains is very impressive.
I think that this lesson was very interesting and easy to understand. 5 starts out of 5.
Amazing and I learned more from his videos then in class.
I chosed to give it 4 stars, because I loved the way the lecture was eplained. I am not a native english speaker and therefor prefered the rather slow speed of speach. unfortunatelly there have not been any Control questions and that is why I only rated this lecture with 4 out of 5 stars.
Very simple and easy to understand , it saved me a lot of time.
It was great it had everything I need EXCEPT the problem is it is like a revision as if I have already taken this I need more in-depth lessons this feels like an overview and I really need this because I study foreign country so I need everything I can get!
Excellent overview that is high yield and covers the key histological points as they relate to bone. Excellent refresher for MSK.
i enjoyed the explanations , especially those of the z line , m line, light & dark bands
I really really liked your explanation. Simple, precise and well-organised.
Very good course and explanations. I am just wondering why lecturio organizes epithelial tissue videos under the subtopic connective tissue, that is a bit confusing.
I could not follow along very well, i did not feel very connected
The flow of the video is fairly slow, however, it's pretty detailed and informative.
I could understand perfectly what blood is, the concept and which contains.
very good lecturer also listen?ng at 1.25x speed works well. I recommend it.
this article handles the explanation for skin layers; which I find as the hardest of the topics, in a well organised and logically acceptable building. It is really interesting to read. It summarizes the topic but without the loss of any crucial information. Also, the use of well-labelled pictures and microscopic slides is a plus and catalyse the understanding. I would recommend this to my premedical colleagues.
Excellent perfomance and pedagogically presented. I would like to have some structure pointed out on the image, and some examples. I would like to know further more what to pay attention to etc.
excellent presentation and clarification of both structures and function of the Nervous system. Thank you.
very good lecture i thoroughly enjoyed watching and learning the content.
I really like the lecturer, and I cannot understand those for think it is too fast. One can pause and ponder and a lecture cannot replace textbook work. He speaks clearly and unbelievable structured.
Great lecture. It is very easy to follow. Great explanation.
Solid review and helpful information in regards to histology. The slides are helpful
Excellent clear lecturer. Quality teaching, with enough slides to supplement.
Muy interesante el tema, y muy bien explicado, lo entendí mucho mejor que los libros, gracias.
Short and to the point, good professor, and good test prep questions
lecture should be more simplify as it is many times difficult to understand .
Not bad but can be better. And also more inclusive
A great teacher, nice images and clear structured progress through the content. Would be improved with a few diagrams in addition to the histology slides.
Very good teacher! Improvement suggestions: - Integrate USMLE-like questions at the end of each chapter - Mark histological structures in image if they are described Thank you
Prof. Meyer is an excellent teacher. His lecturing method is very clear and pleasant. Maybe some constructive improvement tips: - In most lectures Prof. Meyer would describe an histological structure while showing an image. But those particular feature he was describing weren't always marked so in those cases I wasn't sure which structure he was talking about (but in some few videos there were nice animation, so maybe you guys are already working on this point) - Secondly, i was wondering if some of those subjects would be relevenat for the USMLE (Step 1). If it is, I think, it would be a pretty cool feature to integrate some USMLE-like questions after each video (also for other topisc than histology)
De bästa lektionerna inom patologi , stärkt rekommenderas. Han beskriver med noggrannhet och detalj. Toppen Hälsningar Furas
i choose to rate this lecture, because it is well explain. additionally, he outlines the main things that i should remember which is very helpful
This is by far the best histology lecture there is online. love the way make it so easy to comprehend and the Q&A Are amazing
Lecturer was great and explained histology in a fantastically simple way
i like these lectures, because it saved me at the exam that i had last week, i got 8, so it's perfect, i didn't like the book i didn't understand anything.
professor lectures factual information relevant to epithelium in a simplified way
Dr. Meyer is awesome! Easy to follow and understand. Exactly what I needed for class.
These lectures are very easy to follow even without previous knowledge of Histology. They go at a great pace and are explained very well. Presents the most important information with emphasis and is great study resource.
Hi. I got to know your training program via YouTube and I became very interested.
Excellent overall! Superior to my histology presentation in medical school.
This course is very good and comprehensive. It helped me a lot. Thanks.
I like the way he associates and repeats the information and knowledge. It is very clear, easy for the students to understand. I also like his Aussie accent!
I really enjoy to listen your lectures. Are awesome because you can understand everything. In my opinion sometimes are missing few things but nothing to compare with the whole lecture!!! THanks dr. Geoffrey Meyer
Lecturer is great and thorough, I like that he takes space so that you can note something down etc.
I didn't like because (comparing to microbiology) he speaks faster and the resources are poor. To much information without a satisfactory resource. I did graduated in 2009, so it was a long time ago to remember histology. I need to check every detail so it was hard to follow.
It's very good and I think I have learnt a lot and I will like to watch the other videos.
Very beautiful picture and nice identify the cell. I really like this lecture .
simple to understand and straight to the point......loved it
It was very simple, the explanation is ideal for those who are starting on the subject and the images are awesome
I am in love with this site. Seriously. I have been up and down looking for help and this was the place for me. I use my books along with this site as I am a visual learner so thank you for doing this. Plenty of free lectures for financial strugglers like me. Very helpful. I've already shown two of my classmates.
The courses and lectures are great. They have great information, and the lecturers go at a good pace. It has been a great supplement to my histology class, and has been a very useful resource. It has all the information I need, and is easy to follow with Dr. Meyer.
Well done ! I recommend this course to any medical student Nice explanation.
It has been amazing beginning with the lectures on Tissues. The questions that pop up at intervals, I believe help keep one focus and reinforce retention of the material. I am hoping that these lectures will help me become a better student.
It's an absolute pleasure to learn histology with these lectures! Every concept is broke down and explained concisely and fully. Thank you professor Meyer!
