The NDB contains information about experimentally-determined nucleic acids and complex assemblies. Use the NDB to perform searches based on annotations relating to sequence, structure and function, and to download, analyze, and learn about nucleic acids.

The Micropolitan Museum exhibits captured images of micro-organisms.

Photos and line drawings of U.S. plants, including many cultivated or foreign taxa.

Numerous links to virology topics and resources on the Web.

Good definitions of all parts of the body including functions. (No pictures yet.)

Animal Diversity Web (ADW) is an online database of animal natural history, distribution, classification, and conservation biology at the University of Michigan.

The Virtual Library of biochemistry, molecular biology and cell biology.

A consortium of natural history and botanical libraries that cooperate to digitize and make accessible the legacy literature of biodiversity held in their collections and to make that literature available for open access and responsible use as a part of a global “biodiversity commons.” BHL also serves as the foundational literature component of the Encyclopedia of Life (EOL).

This Project is comprised of several interactive tutorials on human biology, immunology, genetics, developmental biology, biochemistry, molecular biology, cell biology, and toxicology.

This is a great introduction to taxonomic structure in the form of a tutorial and numerous explanations and definitions. Includes photos and sounds (for correct pronunciation).

Links to important drosophila resources, as identified by the Society for Developmental Biology.

Aims to become a comprehensive, authenticated source of information about the world’s biodiversity freely available over the Internet. Encyclopedia of Life's portal includes more than 160,000 authenticated species pages, another 1.4 million base pages and links to 14 million pages of digitized biodiversity literature. In the newest version of the EOL portal, users can contribute photos and videos via the EOL Flickr Group, apply tags to images and provide comments on the content.

Explanation and links to the HGP mission and goals, ethical issues, and possibilities of human genetic research from the National Human Genome Research Institute.

Links to important resources on specific model organisms, as identified by Society for Developmental Biology.

A dynamic inventory of Web-based neuroscience resources: data, materials, and tools.

The goal of the Species 2000 project is to create a validated checklist of all the world's species (plants, animals, fungi and microbes). This is being achieved by bringing together an array of global species databases covering each of the major groups of organisms. Currently the database contains 260,000 species, 420,000 synonyms, and 180,000 common names with 90,000 references. It includes 18 contributing databases.

The WWW Virtual Library (VL) is the oldest catalogue of the Web, started by Tim Berners-Lee, the creator of HTML and of the Web itself, in 1991 at CERN in Geneva. Unlike commercial catalogues, it is run by a loose confederation of volunteers, who compile pages of key links for particular areas in which they are expert; even though it isn't the biggest index of the Web, the VL pages are widely recognised as being amongst the highest-quality guides to particular sections of the Web.
