Title: The Microbiology of AIDS
Media Type: Video


Description: "Produced in conjunction with the Pastuer Institute, this program provides a look at the destructive effects of the AIDS virus on a microscopic level. By blending state-of-the-art computer graphics with live-action photography captured by an electron microscope, this brief but fascinating program shows the virus in action. It illustrates how victims become infected, how a cell from the AIDS virus is structured compared with other viruses, and how the AIDS virus systematically attacks and kills healthy cells. While illustrating the difficulties in developing a cure, this program also presents several potential areas of future research. (10 minutes, color)" ~ from their catalog
