The National Center for Infectious Diseases, part of the Centers For Disease Control and Prevention, has compiled information on a host of active, resurgent and emerging diseases. Features include research abstracts, research bulletin board, calendar of conferences and seminars, and news on theraputic and diagnostic developments. Animals and plants at risk are organized by region and taxonomic group. Essays on law and policy put the information in context. The University of Wisconsin's Institute for Molecular Virology has assembled a gallery of computer images created using electron microscopy and X-ray crystallography.
