Levels of Biological Organization

MooMoo Math & Science

An organism refers to a living thing that has an organized structure, can react to stimuli, reproduce, requires energy plus grows and adapts. A Biome is a large ecosystem that has formed in response to the physical environment in which they are found and a shared regional climate. Life is both mysterious and amazing.

Biology position open - know someone who wants to teach in my department?

Jacobs Physics

Our long time biology teacher is retiring, and we're looking for someone to join our department. In terms of biology teaching, our science faculty teach three full-year sections of 14 or so students each, usually with only one or two preps; plus one half-year section of "science thesis seminar." Our academics are 100% evidence based.

Black holes: the meeting of gravity and quantum physics

Futurum

Black holes: the meeting of gravity and quantum physics. Dr Daniel Terno and his team at Macquarie University in Sydney, Australia, are building a framework of characteristics that can be used to search for black holes in the Universe, but their findings may challenge our understanding of the fundamental laws of physics.

Five Most Productive Years: What Happened and What’s Next

Stephen Wolfram

I had begun my career in the 1970s as a teenager studying the frontiers of existing physics. And at first I couldn’t see how computational rules could connect to what is known in physics. But I didn’t stop thinking “one day I need to get back to my physics project”. But now with the Physics Project I was doing this.

Fluorescent Microscopy: Glow-in-the-Dark Science

STEMe

One of the most fascinating intersections of physics, chemistry, and biology. When molecules absorb energy in the form of light, their electrons may enter a brief “excited state,” in which the electrons gain enough energy to further resist the pull of the nucleus and thus may travel further from it.
