Welcome to BiologyInMotion! Here you will find animations, interactive activities, and cartoons designed to make learning biology a richer, more engaging experience.

CELLS alive! includes film and computer-enhanced images of living cells and organisms for education and medical research, focusing on cell biology, microbiology, immunology and microscopy.

In this tutorial you will be learning about the Linnaean click this icon to hear the preceding term pronounced system of classification used in the biological sciences to describe and categorize all living things. The focus is on finding out how humans fit within this system.

The site includes detailed history and timeline of DNA research, interactive DNA model, explores genomes, and explains applications of DNA research.

Our knowledge of the many life-forms on Earth - of animals, plants, fungi, protists and bacteria - is scattered around the world in books, journals, databases, websites, specimen collections, and in the minds of people everywhere. Imagine what it would mean if this information could be gathered together and made available to everyone – anywhere – at a moment’s notice.

Completed in 2003, the Human Genome Project (HGP) was a 13-year project coordinated by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and the National Institutes of Health.

The Department of Biology offers undergraduate, graduate, and postdoctoral training programs ranging from general biology to more specialized fields of study and research.

As we work in partnership with others, our two major goals are to: 1) Protect endangered and threatened species, and then pursue their recovery; and 2) Conserve candidate species and species-at-risk so that listing under the ESA is not necessary.
