CYBERTOWN CAMPUS
MEDICAL BUILDING
Multimedia Medical Reference Library
Facilitates access to medical information resources for medical professionals, students, and patients. The best place to find any and all information is under the Comprehensive Medical Reference Link which is a large virtual collection of medical texts, images, and videos. If you are a student, don't pass up the Medical School Curriculum Section! Also has categories like "Medical Software for Download," "Research Journals,"and "Hospitals on the Web."
Office Of Medical Informatics
"Could be the wave of the future for medical educators. This is all about delivering accurate medical information. Here, medical professionals can gather to read about the latest news and ideas in medical education, including using the Internet to relay medical news. Some of the fascinating stuff: online demos of the
human anatomy and Internet-based medical publishing projects."
Interactive Medical School Lounge
"Ward-weary, lab-laboring pre-M.D.s will be happy to find this virtual student lounge at the University of Kansas, where studying can be mixed with pleasure. Library links include the Vestibular Disorders Association, Grape Vine Interactive Business magazine, the Time, Inc. medical bulletin board, a COOL MUST SEE
"interactive patient" site (to practice history-taking and diagnosis) and much more. Agonize over residency selection (always a major med-student issue) or scrounge for
summer research jobs with your peers around the world."
Children’s Medical Center
The world’s first "hospital without walls." Lots of information about children’s health, from clinical case tutorials, pediatric care, prenatal health maintenance and immunizations, to a hypertext index of children’s diseases and a primer of molecular genetics.
Biomedical Information Resources & Services - by Subject
"This overwhelming mountain of links from the Karolinska Institute in Sweden covers just about everything you might want to know about biomedicine, down to the last quark."
The Living Heart Exhibit at the Franklin Institute
Explore the heart. Discover the complexities of its development and structure. Follow the blood through the blood vessels. Wander through the weblike body systems. Learn how to have a healthy heart and how to monitor your heart's health. Look back at the history of heart science.

This is also the site of the Northwest Louisiana chapter of
