Hello!

I am the new Biology Site Editor. You may have noticed some changes to the page over the past couple weeks, such as the subjects and arrangment of articles. I will be posting new articles weekly, and I will begin sending newsletters three times a month. Sign up for the newsletter to keep up to date with biology happenings and new articles!

Many of the subjects are renamed to be more specific or have a slightly different focus, but have remained somewhat similar in topic. However, I have created a new subject, Biologist Biographies, which is completely different than anything previously on the site. The first in this ongoing series is Ignaz Semmelweis. I hope you enjoy this and other changes!

I voted for Rosalind Franklin because I think she is an interesting woman who did not receive credit for her most important discovery during her lifetime.

Eventually I will write about all three of these scientists, but YOU can decide who gets to be first!

My vote is for Rosalind Franklin because it's good to learn more about that which we know the least. Thanks!

The Rosalind Franklin article is now up!

I guess Gregor Mendel will go up next. Keep your eye out for him in a couple of weeks.
