Model Organism Video Series, The (6 Parts)

Synopsis: This series explores six widely used model experimental organisms, addressing questions that have puzzled students and researchers alike for centuries: How are flowers made? How do cells decide to divide? What tells a leg or an eye where to grow? How do the brain and the nervous system work?

Each programme is presented by an eminent life scientists and begins with discussion of elementary concepts before expanding into more advanced content and real world applications. Suitable for both undergraduate courses and advanced pre-university courses.
