Two courses that may be of interest:

• Epidemics and AIDS: syllabus
• Assessing Complementary and Alternative Medicine: syllabus

For those who wish to duplicate either of these courses, I have included a series of updates. Each update is in the form of a pdf file beginning with a table of contents of each article by title. You can use your pdf reader to select a title and find the full article. Epidemics and AIDS updates are done monthly, while the ACAM updates are done annually in July.

Other, hopefully, useful links:

• Weather report for Hartford, CT (Has it changed yet?)
• Statistics links (Very Useful stuff for those of that mind)
• HIV/AIDS links. This is not an exhaustive list, but reading everything will prove exhausting.
• Complementary and Alternative Medicine links. (Although it is impossible to be even moderately complete in these areas, this should get you started).
