The project aims to support musculoskeletal research through advanced histological techniques, training, and consultation, fostering reproducibility and data quality across studies.
Description
The Histology and Histomorphometry Core (HHC), Core B, will provide inhouse expertise, techniques, equipment, and technical innovation to facilitate ICMH investigators from vastly different subspecialties to use histological approaches in order to assess tissue/cell level mechanisms in their developmental/physiological/disease models. The HHC will facilitate histological and histomorphometric analyses of bone, muscle, cartilage, ligament, tendon, intervertebral disk. The HHC will provide consultation on study design and post-study data interpretation and provide training programs and education in all techniques covered by the Core.
