For 30 years our companion organization, BioMEDIA ASSOCIATES has been a leader in the development of films, video and multimedia for biology education. Many of the productions listed below focus on the world of small living organisms and microlife. BioMEDIA programs offer highest quality visual imagery and several offer state of the art animations that make the unseen worlds of macromolecules and cell micro-structure come to life. These programs are used for classroom and home-education across North America.

CD-ROMs

CELL PROCESSES CD-ROM
Allows students to visualize how cells transport and process materials, synthesize proteins, reproduce and carry out photosynthesis and respiration, replicate their DNA and reproduce.

THE WETLANDS EXPLORER CD-ROM
Investigates the hidden life of streams, ponds and wetlands and observe adaptations, feeding methods, reproductive strategies and interrelationships in: bacteria, protists, and micro-invertebrates.

THE DOMAINS of LIFE CD-ROM
Designed for use with our two video programs: Life's Three Great Branches: Archaea, Bacteria and Eucarya, and The Eukaryotic Cell Evolves, this CD-ROM can stand alone as an up-to-date treatment of this revolution in our understanding the evolution of life on Earth.
