September 2001: PBS "Evolution" Series Launches Interactive Web-Site,
featuring original scientific illustrations from Fairman Studios
Evolution determines who lives, who dies, and who passes traits on to the next generation.
The process plays a critical role in our daily lives, yet it is one of the most overlooked
and misunderstood concepts ever described. In a seven-part television series,
interactive Web
site, and companion book, these and other evolutionary elements are
examined for their profound effect on society and culture. From the genius and torment of Charles Darwin,
to the role of mass extinction in the survival of the species, to the perceived conflict
between science and religion, evolution is sweeping in scope. Designed to encourage intellectual
discourse and provide rich educational opportunities, Evolution illuminates evolution's relevance
for us all. Co-produced by Clear Blue Sky Productions and the WGBH/NOVA Science Unit.

July 2001:
Dartmouth Toxic Metals Research Program begins collaboration with Fairman Studios for its new web site,
launched December 2001.
Nearly three-quarters of the elements that make up the universe are metals.
Though they are abundant in nature, and though many are essential for life,
some metals can be toxic to living things when they build up in water, soil or food.
Worldwide, there is growing awareness of the extent and complexity of this problem.
Dartmouth has formed a diverse group of scientists to study and teach about toxic metals in the environment.
The Dartmouth Toxic Metals Research Site
is created to share what has been learned and to provide an interactive resource for facts,
research and news on metals known to be harmful to living systems. We invite your comments and suggestions.
This project is sponsored by a Superfund Basic Research Program Project Grant from the
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences.
