PEIR

The PEIR Residents Resources site was created with the purpose of establising a gateway to useful educational resources on the Web in the field of Pathology. The Internet is a very powerful informational tool, but finding specific information can be difficult due to the information overflow on the Web and the considerable “noise” that confounds the character and quality of the matches obtained by using Web search tools. The focus of this site is on Web pages and online documents with an educational content. Emphasis is placed on sites with ample illustrations and sites that can be accessed for free. Links to commercial sites are not included unless the site has clear educational content. In many cases the links are made directly to the educational subdirectories of those sites, rather than linking to the main page. The main categories were intentionally made to illustrate the various kinds of Web resources that are of potential educational value in Pathology. This links database is an ongoing project where the links are classified in numerous subcategories.
