These substances may cause neuropsychiatric disorders and behavior problems in human children. LED lighting, plasma and night vision technology and the first web browser are all innovations developed by UIUC faculty and alumni. UIUC also operates the nation's largest medical school where researchers developed the first treatment for multidrug-resistant HIV.
