Step 1 Study Prep Series: Microbiology, Immunology, and Pathology
This is the sixth in a series of six posts about preparing for the USMLE Step 1.
Our previous post in the Step 1 Study Prep Series covered resources on pharmacology. For our last post about systems-based resources, the table below covers top-rated review resources in microbiology, immunology, and pathology according to First Aid for the USMLE Step 1 2018 edition.
Some of the review books in our collection are available online. For print copies of resources, some are available on reserve behind the 4th floor service desk and can be checked out for 4 hours at a time. The books in the 5th floor stacks can be checked out for 4 weeks.

-@growingwisdom to @BonjourParis_ and me on @GBHNews this morning (Dave is not a fan of Groundhog Day, in case you were wondering)GSBS faculty member @lindenhu_md and alum James Phelan have a new paper out in @MicrobioSoc.
