medical micro

Published

if anyone has had this class and knows of any good websites or books, please let me know. my teacher is a crazy old man that spends more time lecturing us about our lives than microbiology. it's driving me crazy but i'm in my second semester of nursing school and have to do well in this class. anything would be helpful :)

these are all the links i have that might be helpful for you. i believe there is a distinction between medical microbiology and microbiology for the health sciences. however, it's hard to know because each college names their courses differently. take the time to check out what each of these sites has to offer. i hope you find some help in some of them.

http://student.ccbcmd.edu/courses/bio141/lecguide/ - links within this lecture guide take you to information on subjects taught in this microbiology class of dr. kaiser at the community college of baltimore county. there are some quiz questions within the linked pages. http://student.ccbcmd.edu/~gkaiser/goshp.html will link you into his lecture notes, illustrations, animations and photographs as well as a lab manual

http://www.bact.wisc.edu/microtextbook/index.php - this is a free online textbook of microbiology – lots of links to information. a very extensive site of information.
