  Search for immunology here; it's a vast list of science sites and sites with more lists. Be careful, it's easy to become a hypochondriac if you delve into the various disease-dedicated sites.
   
   
British Society for Histocompatibility and Immunogenetics: Tissue Typing for Beginners
http://www.umds.ac.uk/tissue/what1.html
   
  This site describes "tissue-typing for beginners!" from the perspective of a clinical lab. Plan your own brain transplants!
   
   
University of Western Ontario: Biology of Infection and Immunity

  The Macrophage Home Page, courtesy of a preeminent lab in this field. Nice photos!
   
   
University of Utah Health Sciences Center: Spencer S. Eccles Library
http://www-medlib.med.utah.edu/WebPath
   
  Mini-tutorials in a variety of pathology topics, including some related to infectious and autoimmune diseases. Examine the data which clinical labs use to make a diagnosis, and see if you can understand the biological basis of the deduction.
   
   
W.H. Freeman Company : Immunology
http://www.whfreeman.com/immunology
   
  This is the home page for the textbook you will use. It contains a varied and linked presentation of some of the illustrations, but also has some links to outside resources. Follow the Chapter Resources links, and you can obtain extra information on a variety of topics from research labs that work in those fields. Most important, it contains the links for downloading Chime and RasMol, so that you can get 3-D manipulables of key molecules whose structures are known through X-ray crystallography. In particular, check out antibodies and MHC molecules.
   
   
World Health Organization (WHO)
http://www.who.ch/ctd
   
  The home page for the World Health Organization (my favorite site!). Has many issues of global health importance. Diseases of the developing world, emerging infections, etc. Wondering what to do with that double major in French and Bio?
