We are privileged to have Prof Ralph Bunte visiting UST next week. Ralph is a Board certified Veterinary Pathologist with 50 years’ experience.
We are also pleased to partner up with our very own CityU’s College of Veterinary Medicine and Life Sciences Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory experts, pathologists Dr Fraser Hill and Dr Allan Kessell to give a series of talks on topic of relevance to our small but growing bio-med and lab animal science communities.
Talk 1 is to be held at Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, Clearwater Bay on Wednesday 13th December 2017 from 3pm to 5 pm
- Prof Ralph Bunte: neuropathology and the issue of special stains needed to evaluate myelination and axonal changes
