1. Course Overview Biology of Mammalian Cells and Tissues - Histology VIBS 443/ VIBS 602 Larry Johnson Cells Tissues Organs/systems

2. Objectives To make a transition from molecular events to organ systems. To have classical histology merged with modern cell biology. To learn technical skills - new types of vision - using the light microscope and electron microscope.

3. Objectives To learn the relationship between cell structure and cell function, and how organ architecture facilitates its function. To learn normal histology as a prerequisite for understanding pathology. To learn how to communicate and have fun with histology.

21. Materials Lecture outlines, laboratory exercises, word slides, and study guides for each lecture. [Note that some of these materials are modified from copyrighted textbooks (see last page for original sources) and should not be copied for non-personal use.] Evaluation forms - may be returned in at the end of the course

22. Materials Textbooks Junqueira’s Basic histology Text & Atlas by Anthony L. Mescher 13e (ISBN 978-0071440912) Earlier versions will likely work too as the textbook materials will be used as a supplement source of information.

23. Organization Cell Biology - Tissues - Organs - Organ Systems Lectures: (26) Begin usually at 10:20 A.M. The objective of lectures is to learn about structure - function relationships and fundamental concepts. Laboratories: written up in manual to be followed along at lab time and continued if needed during discussion time on Fridays. Objective of labs are to learn cell and tissue appearance and function. Subject matter of laboratories usually will be that material covered in lecture the same day. Extra but not required Conferences : (10) To develop conceptual thinking for problem solving . We will not go over these, but they are written as question in the manual and introduction to each on eCamous

24. Organization Preparative homework allows the student to become familiar with the subject of the lecture prior to the lecture period. Preparative homework (25 sets total) is due at 10:00 AM prior to the lecture on the day that that subject matter is covered in the lecture. PPTs for lectures are available at all times

25. Organization The homework will consist of a list of 3 to 5 structures or structural features unique or specifically characteristic of cells, tissues, organs, or organ systems covered in the lecture that day, and one/two sentence(s) for each describing how these structures or structural features contribute to the unique function of that given cell, tissue, organ, or organ system . Possibly, a randomly-selected subset of homework will be graded; however, all homework submitted on time will be recorded.

26. Parts of course will be FLIPPED for more class time discussions. You will watch short videos in preparation for class.

27. Lab introductions – to set up the observation of images as directed within the lab manual Introductions to conferences

30. Writing Assignments Term Paper Objectives To advance understanding of medical topics as they relate to real-world situations To improve communication skills of students in medical fields To improve awareness of issues related to common diseases

31. Writing Assignments Term Paper Prompt Choose one of the lecture topics about which to compose your essay. Using the attached sample as a guide, write about issues relating to your topic. Assume this will be published in a scientific journal and will be read by your professional colleagues. Use outside sources, which should be cited correctly at the end of the paper, and describe your opinion concerning this topic and its implications to the medical field. The final product should be 2,000+ words (not to exceed 3,500 words), typed and double-spaced, in Times New Roman, with 1” margins. Be sure to include the title of the discussion conference in the paper and a list of your sources at the end. If you use a direct quotation, you must correctly cite it in the paper.

32. Writing Assignments Conference essay portion of midterm and final exams Conferences essays will consist of short answers and essays describing experiments, procedures, expected findings, and conclusions.

33. Writing Assignments Submittals on eCampus The following will be due throughout the semester (see class schedule above). Feedback will be given at each step with a final grade for the final draft.

35. Organization Student participation in class and student enhancement of the objectives of the course are encouraged and may pay off in borderline cases. Scholastic dishonesty including plagiarism as defined at the TAMU Web Site (http://student-rules.tamu.edu/rules20.htm) will not be allowed. Grades may be curved at the end of the semester.

Focus the condenser (e.g. , image of the closed field diaphragm) on the specimen using the condenser height adjustment knob. Center the condenser (e.g., image of the field diaphragm) with the two condenser centering knobs so that the light passing through the opening of the field diaphragm is concentric with the peripheral edges of view. Open the field diaphragm so that field diaphragm is just outside of view. Kohler illumination
