  Links for Undergraduate Science Majors

• Basic Resources for Beginning Genetics Students
  A little page I set up for my classmates containing links to resources for students of introductory genetics.
• Index of Equipment and Procedures for Basic Chemistry Labs
  Intended for my classmates in general chem, this site contains a series of detailed pages on all kinds of lab techniques. Includes movie files (Quicktime format), detailed illustrations and clear instructions.
• Organic Chemistry Information and Tutorials
  A page containing all kinds of resources and tutorials for students of organic chem.
• Doctor's Guide to the Internet
  An excellent site with lots of archived material. Covers recent developments.
• Cyberspace Hospital and Medical School
  Kind of neat. Uses VRML.
• Chemistry database at University of Utah
  This is a good source of MSDS sheets that are easy to read and contain easily definable chemical properties. However, the search engine is somewhat lacking. Organic chemists would do best to search via the next entry.
• The Quasar chemistry database specializing in MSDS sheets.
  This has Jughead search engine which allows you to search by keyword. This is extremely useful when searching for organic compounds which can go by any number of different names.
• The Chemistry Hypermedia Project at Virginia Tech
  This is a superb link to a source of all kinds of sources and even pointers. You can even download MPEGs (movies) of demonstrations of all kinds of laboratory methods and chemistry theory.
• A very good jumping off point for chemistry sources.
  This site points you to many different kinds of chemistry sources available on the web as well as in other internet formats. Worth checking out.
• A Treasure Trove of Physics Resources.
  A very comprehensive listing of physics resources. Search engine.
• Tips and Tricks for Light Microscopy
  A fairly comprehensive listing of short explanations concerning light microscopy techniques.
