BIF staff have taught several courses over the years. Presently we teach only this one:
- Workshop in Microtechnique. This is a 5-day workshop covering either animal or plant microtechnique (paraffin sectioning) offered by Dr. Denise Schichnes. The workshop is offered in June, and it has a course fee is $400/student. Students who wish to learn the technique of making paraffin histological slides from tissues should consider this workshop. Here is 2024 Plant Microtechnique class, and the 2024 Animal Microtechnique class.
