Human Anatomy/Advanced Biology: Pathology in Real Life — with Dr. Catriona Anderson

Step inside the pathology lab with Dr. Catriona Anderson—Edinburgh-trained physician and former histopathologist—as she demystifies what really happens from biopsy to diagnosis. In this interview, Dr. Anderson (who also homeschools her children) bridges classroom concepts with real clinical practice: how tissue is preserved and turned into slides, why H&E’s pink-and-purple world is the universal language of pathologists, when labs add immunohistochemistry or DNA testing, and how long results actually take.

Students also get clear, memorable explanations of core anatomy & physiology ideas:

• ​ Goblet cells and respiratory epithelium (why mucus matters)
• ​ Cell specialization & regeneration—what heals fast, what doesn’t, and why
• ​ Connective tissue (loose vs. dense, cartilage, bone, blood)
• ​ Immune defense in action—neutrophils, macrophages, B/T cells, and memory

Real stories, precise science, and practical pathways connect high-school learning to healthcare careers, showing how pathologists collaborate with surgeons and physicians to guide treatment. Perfect for motivated homeschool and classroom learners who want to see how anatomy becomes diagnosis—and how biology saves lives.

Welcome to The Unashamed Podcast at Level Up!

This is where young believers discover how to stand firm in their faith—without fear, without apology, and without compromise.

In today’s episode, we sit down with three bold homeschoolers who are weaving faith into fashion. Together, they launched Blessed Threads, a brand born from a simple but radical conviction: that clothes can do more than just cover you… they can speak, testify, and spark courage.

Chrissy, Luke, and Karynton aren’t just creating apparel—they’re creating armor. Each hoodie, each pair of sweats, every design is stitched with purpose, inspired by Psalm 112:2—“Their children will be successful everywhere; an entire generation of godly people will be blessed.”

In this conversation, you’ll hear how their faith fuels their creativity, why they believe the next generation must be on fire for God, and what sets their brand apart in a world where style often lacks substance.

This is more than a story about starting a clothing company.

It’s a story about calling. About courage. About living unashamed.

So let’s dive in.
