Howdy Histoland,
    I swear one day I'm gonna shoot me a pathologist. We are diving into the realm of hair pulls by dermatologists to look for fungus. Any ideas on how to handle these itsy bitsy specimens? Embedding tips? We were successful on the first specimen, but haven't even come close since then. I'm pulling my hair out.
    We are supposed to be a nice little lab that does routine histology. Don't the "reference" part fool ya. Ummmmmm, maybe some one should have told this pathologist that.
    As always, thanks in advance for your help and the routine disclaimer
