Belanger, Rachelle M.; Grabowski, Gregory M.; Joshi, Gnanada S.; Tuttle, Jacob E. – Bioscene: Journal of College Biology Teaching, 2018
Histotechnology is commonly used in medical research, pathological testing, and pharmaceutical development. We designed a three-week, inquiry-based laboratory module that helps prepare students for biomedical careers by teaching them tissue sampling, processing, and imaging. Rats were treated with streptozotocin (a known diabetogen) while control…

Belanger, Rachelle M.; Conant, Stephanie B.; Grabowski, Gregory M. – Bioscene: Journal of College Biology Teaching, 2013
Rats can be used as a model organism to teach physiological concepts in a laboratory setting. This article describes a two-part laboratory that introduces students to hypothesis testing, experimental design, the appropriate use of controls and surgical techniques. Students perform both a castration and sham-control surgery on male rats and test…
