Histotechnology Professionals Day
On March 10, 2010, The National Society for Histotechnology (NSH) announced the inaugural celebration of an annual Histotechnology Professionals Day; a day dedicated to raising awareness about the field of Histotechnology. Much has changed in the last decade, but one thing that has stayed the same, is the dedication of the individuals in the histology profession.
Art of the Stain Contest
Every year NSH holds an Art of the Stain Contest, celebrating the combination of art and science that is histotechnology. The winner of the 2021 Art of the Stain Contest was Christine Carreira for her Alcian Yellow Toluidine blue stain Helicobacter pylori in gastric biopsies.
