Nena,

you don't indicate the purpose of this display case. If it is to promote the work that you do, by all means follow through and include something that is eye catching. This is your chance to shine! I would suggest high quality microscopic images printed on high quality paper that can even include photos of slides and a microscope if that best represents your work. I don't know who will see this display. Breast cancer is a topic of interest to a large audience and may be used (if relevant to your setting) to illustrate how your work aids the patient and makes the diagnosis.

 

let us know what you decide to include.

I was asked to coordinate our display case for the histology department. It
will be a permanent display next to the lab.I was told not to put slides
since I cannot put microscope in the display case.  I need any
suggestions.....

Thanks a lot,
