Useful Links
Some websites that you might want to start with:
- E. Wagner: Research page: http://darwin.bio.uci.edu/~faculty/wagner/index.html
- E. Wagner: Virology course page: http://eee.uci.edu/02f/05450/
This course website is only held for a year or so after the quarter of presentation. The most up-to-date version can be found by going to the UCI searchable schedule of classes:
- http://webster.reg.uci.edu/perl/WebSoc (note that the capitalization is important) and then searching for Biological Sciences and course number 124 for the latest fall quarter available.
Additional virology Web pages are personally organized by various faculty and scientists to ease searches for specific topics in virology. As of Spring 2003, the sites listed below seem useful for general background information. Some have self-study questions and sample examinations. It is important to be aware, however, that there is no guarantee that they will survive or be updated regularly.
- The Garry Laboratory at Tulane maintains the most comprehensive website devoted to virology ("All the Virology on the World Wide Web"). The URL is http://www.tulane.edu/~dmsander/garryfavweb.html
- The University of Wisconsin, Madison, has an Institute of Molecular Virology. Their very useful website is located at http://virology.wisc.edu/IMV/
