Nervous Tissue and Its Properties Course
Gain mastery in nervous tissue from cell types to circuits. This course covers hippocampus and cortex histology, staining methods, imaging techniques, and data analysis to interpret stress-related changes and prevent artefacts—key skills for biological research and laboratory work in Zimbabwean contexts.

What will I learn?
This course provides a focused, practical overview of neuronal and glial histology, hippocampal and cortical organisation, and stress-induced structural changes. Participants learn optimised paraffin processing, staining, immunohistochemistry for neurons, glia, and myelin, plus microscopy, digital image analysis, stereology, and robust experimental design for reliable, publishable results in neurohistology.

Develop skills
- Brain tissue 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 design: plan, blind, and report ethical, reproducible neurohistology.
