All cancers are linked by the fundamental property of uncontrolled cell growth, but how cancerous cells acquire this ability can vary. This set of eight microphotographs depicting a variety of cancerous cells and cancerous cell development will help students appreciate the diversity of cancer and how this makes a single cure for cancer difficult, if not impossible, to achieve.

Introduce junior and senior high school students to the world of microscopy with inexpensive, unbreakable Microslides. Microslides consist of a strip of film with eight photomicrographs, each reproduced exactly as you would see them through a professional microscope under ideal conditions. You can supply all your students with their own Microslides. A detailed text folder is included. Viewers are available separately.
