In this activity, students examine the relationship between soil microbes and carbon cycling through self-designed experiments exploring “microbial respiration rates and soil variables such as temperature, habitat, soil type, and agricultural management choices.” Three different techniques for...

This page, from the U.S. National Library of Medicine's Medline Plus, offers information on the topic of cloning. Included are a short summary of the topic, with definitions of gene cloning, reproductive cloning, and therapeutic cloning, as well as collections of links under the headings Start Here,...

This video, created by Support Center for Microsystems Education (SCME), provides an overview of the different applications of microelectromechanical systems or MEMS. The video runs 13:37 minutes in length and describes a variety of possible MEMS, including: inkjet printheads, DNA microarrays,...

This animation, created by Support Center for Microsystems Education (SCME), "illustrates the removal or etch of the sacrificial layer of silicon dioxide. Removing this layer allows the micro-cantilevers to move. Such cantilevers are used as sensors for a variety of applications." The supporting...

This animation, created by Support Center for Microsystems Education (SCME), "illustrates the anisotropic etch on the backside of a silicon wafer. The chamber formed as a result of this etch is used as the reference chamber for a micro-pressure sensor." Viewers can find supporting learning modules...

This animated video, created by Support Center for Microsystems Education (SCME), illustrates the nine step process of micropressure sensor fabrication. The video runs 2:05 minutes in length. More information can be found on the SCME website.

This video is part of the 2020 SciTech Lecture Series from Forsyth Technical Community College. This series of lectures is held every year and covers an array of science and technology topics. This lecture features Dr. Ronald Keeney, President of Pharmaceutical Medicine Associates, Inc. During this...

The North Carolina Community College System BioNetwork's interactive eLearning tools (IETs) are reusable chunks of training that can be deployed in a variety of courses or training programs. IETs are designed to enhance, not replace hands-on training. Learners are able to enter a hands-on lab...

This lab activity from the Biotechnology Alliance for Suncoast Biology Educators (BABSE) demonstrates how to do proper scientific measurements and the calculations associated with them. It also covers how to make a graph of data and how to interpret the data and associated graphs. It contains an...

The Northeast Biomanufacturing Center and Collaborative (NBC2) has created this resource that provides an overview of the topic of metrology.  Visitors to the webpage can download various documents related to the topic, including papers titled, Balance Calibration Form, Eppendorf Research Plus...
