Random Science Related Links

The Chemistry department at UVM has its own home page, which includes an almost up to date list of their faculty at UVM.

This is a gopher site where you can find Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) for tons of chemicals and substances shipped in the US. There is plenty of important information on some of these sheets, but keep in mind that I once saw a 14 page MSDS on water!! Let's see... in the case of eye contact, flush for 15 minutes with water... hmmm!!

Here is an interesting list, titled "15 Reasons Not To Store Your Chemicals Alphabetically". I think the reasoning here is that chemicals should be stored in groups of non-reactivity, rather than alphabetically. If this whets your appetite, there is more cool safety information available that is worth everyone's perusal. Some of it's very outdated, but most is still valid - hey, chemicals don't change much from year to year.

A few random Science related pages:

1. Digital Learning Center for Microbial Ecology, a really neat site with information about all kinds of microbes, including interesting pictures and informative links
2. HMS Beagle, a cool online science publication with tidbits from many well-known publications, news, discussion groups, book reviews, and a lot more.
3. Journal of Chemical Education
4. a list of Mycology Resources on the Internet
5. Medical Mycology Research Center
6. the Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research/MIT Center for Genome Research
7. Engineering
8. Mathematics
9. International Standards Organization

Also check out my some of my Favorite Sites, or my list of NMR and molecular modelling-related links. I rarely update this page, unfortunately..
