Training Course: Mouse Necropsy and Tissue Processing

29th September 2025, 9:30 am – 4:30 pm

The 2-day course provides practical training in how to perform a basic standard mouse necropsy and describe gross observations made during this process. It then covers considerations for the treatment of tissues collected at necropsy, some of the routinely used solutions and the cutting in of tissues in preparation for histological processing and embedding.

Date: Monday 29th – Tuesday 30th September 2025

Time: 09:30 – 16:30

Cost: £600.00

After this course, you’ll be able to:

  • Perform a basic standard mouse necropsy.
  • Describe gross observations at necropsy.
  • Gain an understanding of the rapid ’emergency’ opening.
  • Select suitable tissues for histology and further analysis.
  • Perform a standard cut-in.

This course is designed for Researchers, Animal Technicians, and PhD Students.
