Histology is a branch of biology concerned with the composition and structure of plant and animal tissues in relation to their specialized functions¹.

The fundamental aim of histology is to determine how tissues are organized at all structural levels, from cells and intercellular substances to organs¹.

The Department of Biomedicine Histology Core Facility enables researchers to perform histological assays aimed at answering questions relative to the composition of tissues and the in-situ localization of organic molecules.

The Facility provides the support and the equipment to prepare tissue specimens for paraffin embedding, sectioning, cryosectioning and histological stains.
