An interactive online resource for learning biology developed at The University of Arizona. Students will benefit from the real-life applications of biology and the inclusion of up-to-date research findings.

A site containing thousands of videos designed to help you learn "what you want, when you want, at your own pace." The biology section covers topics seen in a first year college or high school life science course.

The Encyclopedia of Life began in 2007 with the bold idea to provide “a webpage for every species." EOL brings together trusted information from resources across the world such as museums, learned societies, expert scientists, and others into one massive database and a single, easy-to-use online portal. Today, the Encyclopedia of Life is expanding to become a global community of collaborators and contributors serving the general public, enthusiastic amateurs, educators, students and professional scientists from around the world.

Is there a risk?
If so, how do we reduce/mitigate/prevent the risk?
Have our actions been successful in reducing risk?
