Announcements for Biological Impacts

Welcome to Biological Impacts and Issues, i.e., Biology 1307. Several of you have asked about textbooks for this course. We will not be using a textbook. Instead, you will be receiving various hand-outs to read during the course of the semester.

I would remind you that the lecture outlines that are currently on this website are from last year. I will be making moderate revisions in some of these outlines as the semester progresses. Usually, I will put the latest revision on this website by 10:00 PM the night before any given lecture. When a revised outline has been completed, the hyperlink will be high-lited in blue, instead of orange.

As we progress through the first 2/3's of this course, you may find it helpful to bookmark several search engines that can provide you almost any information available about health and disease topics:

www.cdc.gov/search.htm

http://search.nih.gov

www.yahoo.com

www.ama-assn.org/search/search.htm (this latter one is more detailed and more scientific)

In some of the lecture outlines, there will be hyperlinks to other websites.
