The
Dolan DNA Learning Center was the executive producer of this $1.8
million project, and coordinated contributions from producers and
designers in the United Kingdom and Australia – Windfall Films,
The Red Green & Blue Company Ltd., The Mill, and The Walter
and Eliza Hall Institute. The Internet site is part of a larger
DNA project developed by an international collaboration of
scientists, educators, and filmmakers. Other DNA products
include a five-part TV series that aired on PBS in 2004; DNA:
the Secret of Life book co-authored by Nobel Laureate James
D. Watson; a half-hour video for museums and science centers; and
DVDs of the television series and DNAi teacher resources.
Funded by the Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI), DNAi comprises six major topic areas: Timeline, Code, Manipulation, Genome, Applications, and Chronicle. The topics were serially released over a five-month period in 2003, and by year's end, DNAi received 377,000 visits - making it our fastest growing release to date. The topic areas (with the exception of Timeline) loosely follow the DNA: The Secret of Life television series. Within the topics, the media elements (video, animations, photos, and text) are packaged into modules, sections, and sub-sections that tell specific stories about DNA science. DNAi includes more than five hours of video footage drawn from extensive interviews with more than 70 scientists (including 11 Nobel Laureates). More than 150 animations illuminate key experiments in the history of DNA and bring to life the molecular processes that govern DNA replication and expression.  Go

four hours of viewing |
