Vertebrate Microscope Slides
Vertebrate anatomy, organ systems, and comparative tissue samples.
Every slide here is a scan of a real prepared specimen, not a simulation or a drawing. Pan from the whole slide down to individual cells, always in focus, and measure structures in real micrometers. Present a slide live and every student screen follows your view and annotations. Students join with a room code on Chromebooks, iPads, or any browser, with no accounts.
