Who runs this website
Biology Notes Online is created, written, and maintained entirely by me — Sourav. I hold an M.Sc. in Microbiology from Calcutta University, and I’ve spent years working in academic content writing and life sciences education. With this platform, I aim to simplify biology for students and curious learners alike. The content here is designed to be clear, practical, and jargon-free — built from real academic experience, not just theory.
Why I started this site
I started Biology Notes Online after realizing that most biology content available online is either overly simplified or unnecessarily complicated. Many sources skip essential concepts, or they present them in ways that confuse rather than clarify. I wanted to change that by building a platform where biology is both accurate and exam-friendly, yet still engaging and visually supported. No fluff, no filler — just helpful explanations and diagrams that actually make sense. Whether you’re preparing for NEET, CSIR-NET, or just trying to better understand how life works, this site is here to guide you.
My Background & Expertise
My academic background includes an M.Sc. in Microbiology from the University of Calcutta, and I specialize in areas like cell biology, microbiology, genetics, plant biology, and molecular biology. Over the past five years, I’ve worked in academic writing, provided mentorship to undergraduates, and gained hands-on lab experience with microbial culture techniques, microscopy, and biochemical assays. Every piece of content on this site is built using verified scientific sources, trusted academic textbooks, and the latest available data — carefully written to ensure both clarity and credibility.
How content is created
All the articles, notes, diagrams, and tutorials on Biology Notes Online are personally written or reviewed by me. I don’t outsource content or rely on unverified sources. Instead, I base everything on trusted academic textbooks, peer-reviewed research papers from databases like PubMed and NCBI, and actual classroom materials I’ve used or encountered during my studies and teaching. While I occasionally use AI tools to help draft diagrams or organize ideas, every piece is fact-checked, rewritten, and edited by me to ensure it’s scientifically accurate and easy to follow. I also review and update older posts regularly to keep the content fresh, relevant, and aligned with current educational standards.
Who this website is for
This website is built for anyone trying to learn biology in a more meaningful way. Whether you’re a high school student, a NEET or medical entrance aspirant, a college biology major, or an educator seeking quality study resources, you’ll find something valuable here. Even if you’re just curious about how life works at the cellular or molecular level — this site is for you.

What makes this site different
What sets Biology Notes Online apart is that it’s a single-author platform, where every word is written by someone who has actually studied the subject in depth. You’re not reading recycled content or generic summaries — you’re getting explanations rooted in real academic experience. I prioritize clarity over clutter, so there’s no copy-paste, no unedited AI-generated spam, and no vague or confusing definitions. The content here is experience-driven, built from a mix of textbook knowledge, lab work, and actual study sessions. I’m also committed to visual learning — actively working to add 3D diagrams, interactive tools, and flowcharts that make complex biology topics easier to grasp and remember.
