Today on #AccessibleScience, I've finished some liver H&E staining. This type of tissue stain lets me see the shape and characteristics of the cells. Please ask questions! All questions are good questions!

I am so excited to see this! Thank you so much for putting this together!

I’ll try to build 1 for our library!

If anyone in Boston wants to help me build this (I am slightly intimidated 😅) for #Dorchester #Matapan neighbourhoods, please let me know!
