We live in an era of discovery. Each day, scientists bring us closer to understanding fundamental questions about human life. How does the brain process information and store knowledge? How do mutations in key genes cause disease? How do cells communicate? The challenge of solving these and other questions-as well as the promise of what those answers might yield-drives the quest for knowledge at the heart of the work at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute.
HHMI, a nonprofit medical research organization that ranks as one of the nation's largest philanthropies, plays a powerful role in advancing biomedical research and science education in the United States. The Institute spent $825 million for research and distributed $80 million in grant support for science education in fiscal year 2011.
The Making of the Fittest DVD is a trilogy of short films featuring unforgettable examples of the evolutionary process in action. Each film is an adventure of discovery--from the deserts of the American Southwest, to the icy Antarctic, and the lowlands and highlands of Eastern Africa, where fascinating creatures and pioneering scientists reveal how the fittest are made.
