404, File Not Found, Where did the old content go? Thank you for your interest in webcast.berkeley. Please note that we launched a new site on June 30, 2011. As part of the launch, much of our back catalog of courses that we were unable to migrate out of a proprietary format which we no longer support are now unavailable. More information on the new site is available in our announcement: http://webcast.berkeley.edu/info#news,2949
There are a wealth of biology videos and lectures on the world wide web, so whittling down the vast selection to those that are really worth watching is perhaps a bigger challenge than actually finding them. Here, we’ve done all the hard work for you to bring you – in our opinion – ten of the best. From Frank Volkmar’s insightful lecture into the complex condition of autism, to Marian Diamond’s essential look at the human anatomy, the following lectures have been chosen as an essential base for anyone considering – or already embarking – on a career in biology. All are given by qualified and highly respected scientists and whether you're looking for practical science such as physiology and drug treatment to the more theoretical fringes of biotech, there's a wealth of wisdom in this hand-picked selection. Frank Volkmar offers a series of insightful lectures, which form an entire free course – a first of its kind offered by Yale University.
“Problems like the artificial heart are still unsolved, there's still room for innovation, to learn from science, and to design something better.”
