This interactive video explores how two scientists tracked the 2013 Ebola outbreak in West Africa. 

In this Click & Learn, students explore the process of digestion and how it connects to metabolism and cellular respiration. 

This interactive module can be used to model infectious disease spread in a population. It includes background on the SIR model and two simulators for modeling disease spread on different scales. 

This interactive video explores how scientists identify which bat populations are infected with Nipah virus and could transmit the virus to humans.

This interactive module consists of a virtual Winogradsky column, which can be used to explore the diversity of microbes, microbial metabolic strategies, and geochemical gradients found in sediments.

This interactive module explores biomes, climate, biodiversity, and human impacts around the globe and at different times.

This interactive module explores the diversity of viruses based on structure, genome type, host range, transmission mechanism, replication cycles, and vaccine availability.

This tutorial describes the structure and function of the cancer-causing protein BCR-ABL. It also shows how drugs targeting this protein can help treat chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), a cancer of the white blood cells.

This model shows the structure of the protein BCR-ABL, which causes a type of cancer called chronic myeloid leukemia.

This model shows a mutated form of the cancer-causing protein BCR-ABL that is resistant to the drug Gleevec.

This model shows the structure of ATP, a molecule that provides energy for cellular processes, including protein phosphorylation.

This tutorial introduces students to vector-borne disease with a focus on dengue fever, which is transmitted by mosquitoes. Students also learn about strategies designed to stop the spread of disease by interfering with the mosquito life cycle.
