WOW! UAB Launches New Web Site

You've never seen anything like it on a university Web site. http://WOW.UAB.EDU is a new, interactive, regularly updated Web site that shares the adventure of discovery with UAB researchers and students as they travel around the world and into the depths of microscopic worlds.

Through the firsthand accounts of researchers find out what it's really like to live and work in some of the world's most remote locations, search for the cure to diseases like cancer and AIDS, and probe the mysteries of life. In our first outing, travel to Antarctica with a team of researchers led by UAB scientists James McClintock, Ph.D., and Charles Amsler, Ph.D., as they venture to the end of the earth, diving into the rich peninsula waters of Antarctica to investigate the chemical ecology of a kaleidoscopic array of marine organisms.
