Workshop in Plant and Animal Microtechnique
June, 2003

CNR Biological Imaging Facility
University of California, Berkeley

This year we had 14 students; with one student from Italy!

The class learned the accelerated microwave technique and in situ hybridization. Microm gave us their excellent HM 355 / HM 360 motorized microtome. Thank you Philip Troy Eppler of Micron Instruments.

The contest was quite difficult to judge this year due to the excellent results by all students. We managed to choose, however. Here are the winners:

Best Plant Preparation went to Myriam Calonje from UCB
Best Animal Preparation went to José Peña from UCB.

CONGRATULATIONS!
