This video follows biologist Elinor Karlsson, who studies dogs to find genes associated with traits, including certain diseases.

This asynchronous course is designed to deepen educators' content knowledge in evolution, especially regarding content appropriate for teaching at the high school level.

This video follows scientists working in Bangladesh as they test fruit bat populations to determine whether they are infected with Nipah virus, a potentially deadly human pathogen.

This video describes the technology of metabarcoding, which allows scientists to determine herbivore diets based on the sequences of plant DNA extracted from animal dung.

This film explores what our hair, teeth, and hearing reveal about our evolution from ancient reptilian ancestors.

This film explores how the genetic and anatomical legacy of a fish can be seen today in the human body.

This video provides an overview of the types of genes that, when mutated, can lead to the development of cancer.

This video shows the reactions of first-grade students to a replica of a Tiktaalik fossil.

This video explores how advances in DNA sequencing technology have improved cancer diagnosis and treatment.

This film explores the adaptation of anole lizards (genus Anolis) to habitats common across the islands of the Caribbean. The anoles are excellent examples of adaptive radiation, convergent evolution, and speciation through reproductive isolation.
