This is the historic 20th Annual Fall Neurostereology Workshop at Kent Island, in the Chesapeake Bay. 

Participants of the 20th Annual International Fall Neurostereology Workshop will:

  • acquire proficiency in theory and practice of design-based (unbiased) stereology.
  • learn how to avoid the common problems and pitfalls in stereology studies.
  • identify the most efficient path to completion of stereology projects.
  • obtain feedback on their projects from professional stereologists.
  • gain proficiency in computerized stereology systems sold by all commerial vendors.


The only prerequisites for the Neurostereology Workshop are college-level statistics and a desire to learn about unbiased stereology.
