The new photomicrography

Peter Evennett took his first degree in Zoology at the University of Liverpool and his PhD at St Andrews, during which time his interests in microscopy developed. He lectured in Zoology at the University of Leeds, UK, for more than 30 years, with a particular interest in histology, cell biology and, of course, light and electron microscopy. He retired early from the University, and now concentrates on his interests in microscopy, including teaching courses on microscopy for the RMS and independently. He is particularly interested in the fundamental principles of the light microscope and in finding simple ways of teaching and demonstrating them to both new and established microscopists, and also in helping amateur microscopists. Peter is Honorary Archivist of the Royal Microscopical Society, and an Honorary Fellow of the Society.
