Classroom Resource
A hands-on activity in which students interpret molecular diagrams and build physical models of eukaryotic gene regulation.
Classroom Resource
A hands-on activity in which students analyze the results of genetic crosses between stickleback fish with different traits.
Video Clips
Dr. Christine Seidman describes a live demonstration of an echocardiogram, with a description of the parts of the heart that are visualized.
Lectures
Comparing the artificial selection of dogs and corn with the natural selection of the stickleback fish.
Lectures
The genetic mechanisms by which evolution occurs, and an overview of the evidence for evolutionary theory.
Lectures
How and why butterflies and fruit flies got their spots, and the fossil record for human evolution.
Lectures
The hominid fossil record of the past six million years gives us surprising insights into the path of human evolution.
Lectures
The heart acts as a dual pump, sending oxygen-depleted blood to the lungs to be reinvigorated and pumping oxygen-rich blood to vital organs throughout the body.
Lectures
Although heart disease typically occurs after middle age, seemingly fit and healthy young individuals can die suddenly from unrecognized heart disease.
Lectures
Molecular genetic approaches have identified genes that, when mutated, cause either increased or decreased blood pressure.
Series
In four lectures, Richard P. Lifton, MD, PhD, and Christine E. Seidman, MD, discuss their groundbreaking work in using genetic and molecular approaches to understand cardiovascular diseases.
Interview
An interview with Stephanie Nuñez, a student in Dr. Kingsley's lab.
Animation
As a human embryo develops, its cells become progressively restricted in the types of specialized cells that they can produce. Inner cell mass (ICM) cells of the blastocyst can make any type of body cell. Gastrula-stage cells can give rise to the cells of a given germ layer. Later, cells become...
Animation
This animation shows a rotating 3-D image of a stickleback skeleton. The pelvic region, including the pelvic spines, is highlighted in red. Armored plating covers the flanks of the fish. The three prominent dorsal spines give the fish its name.
Video Clips
A quarry site in Nevada carries the evolutionary history of a population of stickleback fish that resided there when it was a freshwater lake.
