H&E is the purple and pink stain on almost every pathology slide: haematoxylin colours cell nuclei blue-purple and eosin colours the cytoplasm and connective tissue pink.
Haematoxylin and eosin stain is one of the principal tissue stains in histology, the most widely used in medical diagnosis and often the gold standard; a biopsy of a suspected cancer will almost always be stained with H&E (Wikipedia). Because it is universal and cheap, digitised H&E slides are the input to pathology foundation models, which learn to predict grade, molecular alterations and outcome from morphology alone.
