How do we move students past the Punnett square to understand the thousands of genes influencing traits like height and weight?
We are pulling back the curtain on our latest collaboration with HHMI BioInteractive to tackle the fascinating science of polygenic inheritance, combining world-class scientific expertise with cinematic storytelling to create a powerful new resource for your #APBio or #IBBio classroom.
Join HHMI BioInteractive this Thursday 5/14 from 7-8 PM ET for a deep dive into #ComplexGenetics. During the session, world-renowned expert Dr. Joel Hirschhorn will walk through how scientists track the massive genetic networks that shape human traits. The session will include a clip from the new film we’ve been producing with HHMI BioInteractive.

“The Science Communication Lab offers a plethora of resources that would be huge assets to any biology course.”—we’re proud to share this recent review of our content from The American Biology Teacher, published by NABT.
In the latest “Classroom Materials & Media Review,” Jeffrey D. Sack, Ed.D., explores how our resources help educators move past the struggle of finding scientifically meaningful and exciting content. The review highlights how we bridge the gap between complex research and student engagement by connecting them to real scientists and their journeys.
Why educators are using our FREE resources:
* Direct Access to Discovery: Our collection features milestone scientific discoveries from the scientists themselves, including Meselson and Stahl discussing their “most beautiful” experiment on DNA replication.
* Comprehensive Classroom Tools: Many films include detailed lessons with learning objectives, discussion questions, and activities to help students develop scientific thinking skills.
* Focus on Identity: Lessons go beyond content to address the nature of science and science identity, helping students see a place for themselves in the field.
* Professional Growth: Through iBiology Courses, we offer free online self-paced courses like “Building a Research Community” and “Share Your Research” for early career scientists and advanced students.
We are committed to providing these resources for free to help educators inspire the next generation of scientists.
