In August, we bid a fond farewell to Xian (Lily) Li, postdoctoral fellow, in the Core for two years, who returned to China. She worked tirelessly to provide histology and immunohistology services to our users, particularly during the 2020 pandemic. We hope she can return to the Core in a…
An Olympus VS200 slide scanner was evaluated by multiple users using their sample brightfield and fluorescent slides. The instrument was user-friendly with fast scans that produced clear images for both brightfield and fluorescence. Large format slides (2″ x 3″) were also scanned following H&E staining. Additional features included extended focus…
