[Histonet] Automated Microtome

[Bartlett, Jeanine]

I had carpal tunnel surgery on my left hand 5 years ago.  While my right
hand needed it as well, it was not as badly damaged so I put it off and
am now having the surgery tomorrow.  Although it is not a truly
automated microtome, the Microm Ergostar has been a life-saver for me.
I highly recommend it.

Can I have the latest and greatest regarding automated microtomes? I
have an employee with carpal tunnel- anyone have experience with such
employees using this instrument to lessen their problems?

Thanks
