VIC Portal (Learning Management System)

VIC Portal is the Larner College of Medicine's version of Blackboard, a learning management system (LMS). One important thing to note is that to log in to VIC Portal, use only your LCOM username, not your full email address.

VIC Portal will have quizzes, grades, and some materials for your courses. But most importantly, it is how you get to your VIC Calendar.

Virtual Microscope

Body

The pathology department created a digital image for each of the microscopic slides in the student slide collection. Students may access the slides using a virtual microscope, which allows continuous magnification from roughly 1X to 40X objective, and comparisons with other slides in the set, including normal slides from histology. Students may use the virtual microscope anywhere there is a computer and can view the slides in small or large groups. The virtual microscope can be accessed by our medical students via VIC Portal or directly with the link below.
