Spanish subtitled "Mutations - selection: the bacteria resist"

Surf, share, comment…and if the participation age of the Internet would even be more?A great example of active contribution has just come up for the “Evolution of life” project.Marcelo Oré Vásquez, medical doctor from Mexico, sent us a Spanish translation to the voices from the movie “Mutations – selection: the bacteria resist”

Marcelo: “Generally speaking, Mexico and Latin America are countries... where people have been used for many many years to self-medicate, including with antibiotics!!!Personally, I know a lot of cases, including relatives and friends! It's really terrible... Recently (2 or 3 years ago) the Secretariat of Health has finally put an end to this, making it compulsory for drug stores to sell antibiotics only to those people showing a valid medical prescription for the antibiotic to be sold.”

You can now view the movie with its Spanish subtitles on our youtube channel:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bYIBTLEiNSo

It’s the opportunity to remind you that we already had this excellent example of user’s contribution, as Sorina and Daniel Andriev have sent us Romanian translations for « Darwin on the evolution trail », « O as Origin » and « An evolutionary arms race ».
On your demand we could envisage to create burn-in Romanian subtitles.«

Muchas gracias » to Marcelo and « mulţumesc” to Sorina and Daniel!

Text transcripts for the simulations



Text transcripts for the simulations are now available online in order to make the content more accessible and to help teachers using the simulations with their students in countries of other languages than those proposed on the web site.



You will find in the "download" section under each simulation a new link (text transcript). See here:
