Department of Physiology, Medical School, University of Vienna
 The Physiology Student's Internet Home Page 
This is a starting point to sites of interest for studying topics in physiology (mostly neuro- and sensory physiology)
and some related areas including clinical aspects.You may find and download images, tutorials, animations etc.
See also our Tutorial Pages, accompanying the courses for Neuro- and Sensory Physiology
If you find some new sites particularily useful for students let me know: e-mail to : peter.ahnelt@univie.ac.at
When downloading be sure to have installed the appropriate Operating System, Hard- and Software
for handling some of the Multi-Media-Material (QuickTime, MPeg, Browser Plug-Ins etc.).
Some adresses may be difficult to reach especially during daytime and inter-continental.
However if you encounter a "URL not found" please notify me. Where possible the European mirror site is cited.
