Wonderful Website: Learn.Genetics

It's been too long since I have blogged, however, I am inspired by a number of excellent websites I have been using. My goal is to highlight one each week. Here is one of my all-time favorites:


Learn.Genetics

About the organization: The Genetic Science Learning Center is a science and health education that is part of the University of Utah. Their mission is "making science easy for everyone to understand." Learn.Genetics delivers educational materials on genetics, bioscience and health topics. Another site, Teach.Genetics, provides resources for K-12 teachers, higher education faculty, and public educators.

About the site: There is a wealth of user-friendly reference material on stem cells, cloning and more. There is a collection of Virtual Labs and a wonderful Tour of the Basics.
