“The world will not be destroyed by those who do evil, but by those who watch them without doing anything.”
Albert Einstein
Learn.Genetics
Put together by the University of Utah, learn.genetics.utah.edu is a phenomenal resource for anyone interested in exploring the role genetics in making us who we are. Featuring numerous videos, models, lessons and simulations, the site’s content covers a ton of interesting topics including, cloning, stem cells, gene therapy, addiction, and my personal favorite: epigenetics.
The university is also launching teach.genetics.utah.edu, a fantastic collection of lesson plans and supplemental materials that educators can use to fit the main site’s modules into a traditional classroom genetics course.
While the learn site is fully developed, the teach site remains is beta and is currently under development.
Mustard Seed
“Because you have so little faith. I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.”
Yeshua, Matthew 17:20
Spread Love
“Spread love everywhere you go. Let no one ever come to you without leaving happier.”
Mother Teresa
