[Histonet] Lab Week-Histology Trivial or Fun Facts

[stephanie.d.rivera <@t> gsk.com]

Hi All,

No. I never heard the hard boiled egg sectioning fact.


1. Match the baby picture to the tech.

2. Gather information on if one weren't a histotech what would one do? 
Create a form and have the techs match names to the      profession. It 
could be fun. I participated in another lab once and the techs were funny. 
If I weren't a histotech I'd travel on the speech circuit. That particular 
person talked all day, literally. OR you can come up with professions 
based on the techs personality and have everyone guess on the form. Who 
ever get the most correct gets $5.00 Wawa card or something.

3. Unscramble laboratory terms from all labs including clinical.

4.Double check  this info, Who developed the diamond knife for electron 
microscopy AND improved the ultramicrotome
                        Answer: Humberto Fernandez-Moran--- Venezuela

[Histonet] Lab Week-Histology Trivial or Fun Facts






Hello,
  I was wondering if anyone has some histo trivial-fun facts to share for 
Lab Week?  I remember a supervisor told me long ago that she was told 
while in training, that if you took a hard boilded egg and sectioned it at 
2 microns you would have enough sections to cover a football field.  Has 
anyone ever heard that one before?  Can anyone contribute any others?  We 
are trying to come up with some games for lab week.
Lori
