What will I learn?
This course provides a focused, practical overview of neuronal and glial histology, hippocampal and cortical organisation, and stress-related structural changes. Participants learn optimised paraffin processing, staining, immunohistochemistry for neurons, glia, and myelin, plus microscopy, digital image analysis, stereology, and rigorous experimental design for reliable, publishable data.
Elevify advantages
Develop skills
- Brain histology preparation: process, embed, and section hippocampus with minimal artefacts.
- Neuron-glia identification: distinguish key cell types and stress-induced morphological changes.
- Advanced staining techniques: apply and validate IHC, Nissl, myelin, and microglial markers.
- Quantitative imaging: capture, analyse, and score nervous tissue using ImageJ/Fiji.
- Experimental rigour: design, blind, and report ethical, reproducible neurohistology.
