Microcards: Review Cards for Medical Students

These flashcards will help medical students organize and recall medical microbiology information for course exams and USMLE Step 1. The cards are grouped into sections on gram-positive, gram-negative, and other bacteria; RNA and DNA viruses; fungi; protozoa; and helminths. Each section begins with charts summarizing key information on the group of microorganisms, followed by cards for each individual microbe, which include clinical presentation, pathobiology, diagnosis/treatment, quick facts, and a case study. Schematic illustrations show the morphology and pathogenesis of different microorganisms.
