CREDITS

Ask A Biologist began in 1997 in the School of Life Sciences. The site continues to be developed, and maintained by a dedicated group of volunteers. It is designed as an educational resource for students preK-12, and their teachers and parents. Ask a Biologist is visited by over 1,500 people every day.  This is a SafeSurf site.

Who should use Ask A Biologist?

Anyone is welcome to use Ask A Biologist. Keep in mind that it is intended primarily to serve grades preK-12, and to be available as a resource for teachers. We also find that life-long learners enjoy many of the content areas on our web site and encourage anyone interested in biology to make use of the web content. As always, ASU faculty and staff will be accessible through email to their students.

What Ask A Biologist doesn't do.

Ask A Biologist is not intended to answer questions for post-secondary students, with the exception of teachers. Teachers are highly encouraged to use the site, whether they are involved in preK-12 classes or not, and to submit their feedback.
