  HTML version of lecture notes. These are expanded with additional illustrations PowerPoint file that can be downloaded to you computer and annotated. If you do not have PowerPoint on your computer, you may download a free PowerPoint viewer here
Portable document file (pdf) version of lecture notes.  Get Acrobat Reader free here Audio Video files. This link takes you to our media page

M4P files require Quicktime
NEW Microbiology and Immunology Mobile - If you have ever wanted to read about microbiology and immunology and only had access to a Smart Phone, now you can read the lectures without squinting at tiny web pages. In these text-only files, the images and links have been removed and the text is resizable. Follow the link at left to the growing list of files.

Note to USC M-II Medical Students: The pdf files are very similar to the handout notes that you receive for each lecture (with, in many cases, color illustrations). They can be highlighted using Adobe Acrobat. The downloadable PowerPoint files are the same as the presentation that you will see in each lecture. After down-loading to your computer you may add your own notes. The HTML version of the lecture notes may have additional materials for which you are NOT responsible. You are also NOT responsible for information in the links or any pop-up "Information boxes"

Lectures will be given in M-II classroom.
