Biotechnology Timelines

I just stumbled across an amazing resource on the BIOTECanada site, called the Biotechnology Timeline, that I thought would be of interest to educators, students or, really, anyone else interested in biotechnology. It’s a full colour printable poster (40 x 11 inches) outlining significant achievements in Canadian biotechnology research. This timeline is attractive, informative and interesting and a very useful visual teaching tool to post in any science classroom.

Lots of other timelines can be found online, including another great one for online viewing, but not as easily printed, by BIO, but none in such an attractive poster format. If anyone does know of other similar timelines, particularly for the USA, please let me know.
