SUNY Cobleskill

SUNY Cobleskill partnered with Memorial Sloan Kettering and Rockland Community College to establish a Rockland County-based histotechnician training program to address a nationwide shortage of certified histotechnicians. Histotechnicians prepare human and animal tissue samples for microscopic pathological examination. They play a crucial role in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases by turning tissue samples into microscope slides. See this video to learn more about the program and see a histotechnician in action.
