Microanatomy Slides

Instructions:

You need a JavaScript capable web browser to view the Microanatomy slides. We recommend Netscape or Internet Explorer 4.0 or better.
If your screen is set for less than 800x600 resolution, it is recommended that you view the smaller version of the slides. If you are using 800x600 resolution or greater, you'll probably want to use the bigger slides. You may either click the slide image or on the larger/smaller image link to change the image size. The smaller pictures are the default choice.

You MUST click close after viewing each and every slide description box! If you don't, the slide description box will end up at the back of your desktop, out of view, and you will not be able to view any further slide descriptions until you retrieve and close the slide description window.
Be sure to check out the "Random Slide" link in the upper left hand corner. This will show you a slide from either the carousel or the subject you have chosen. You might find it useful as a self-test, though remember that this website was not setup with that in mind. Practice Microanatomy practicals are available on the UCCOM Software page.

Disclaimers:

This website does not replace the lab portion of this course. In lab, you will find many helpful people willing to explain the slides in more detail than is provided here. The purpose of this website is to make the slides more available for study. Instead of fighting for a limited number of carousels and slide viewers in the lab or in the library, you can view them either at school or at home instead.
The programmers have included brief slide descriptions. Report typos to either Dave or Eric in as much detail as possible to enable us to track them down.

Let's get a bit personal:

This site was created in a week or two by Dave Stultz and Eric Rickin (then UC IIs) from an idea by Birsen Kaya during the Summer of 1997.
Please email either Eric, Dave, or Dr. John Michaels with your thoughts on this website. Hopefully, with enough positive and/or constructive comments, slides from other courses will be webified for future incoming UC med classes.
Dave and Eric would like to thank Dr. John Michaels (Microanatomy course director), Dr. Michael Lieberman (our boss), Josette Riep (the benevolent webmaster), and Birsen Kaya (superstar coordinator) for all their help.
We would like to give extra special thanks to Dr. Bill Fant in the College of Pharmacy for letting us hog his slide scanner for vast quantities of time.
Dave and Eric are available for freelance web programming. (Though our fees are equal to the tuition we're currently paying.)
