Here's a cool game that has the concept of Mitosis, phagocytosis and demonstrates how organisms use organic molecules to grow. http://armorgames.com/play/2258/microbe-kombat

Michio Kaku is on the Science Channel all the time. This video is about the predicted future of Bio-Technology. media type="youtube" key="olNA4axfLCc" height="385" width="640"

A video about ethanol and how it can be used in other ways than it currently is. media type="youtube" key="9dagKpg1P0g" height="385" width="480"

A really cool article about some problems and solutions for titanium bone implants. The process they suggest using is very similar to 3D printing, only instead of using ABS they use titanium http://arstechnica.com/science/news/2008/08/titanium-foam-scaffolds-made-to-match-bones-properties.ars

A Cochlear implant works with the workings of the ear and the nervous system to help deaf people hear. In most cases the ear nerves are functional, but the hairs that sense sound are damaged. media type="youtube" key="SmNpP2fr57A" height="385" width="480"

This is probably more related to technology than it is to Biology, but when designing Hawking's communication computer, they had to consider how he was going to use it. They needed to make it usable so he is able to communicate easily. http://www.hawking.org.uk/index.php/disability/thecomputer

This is an article about what stem cells are, and more interestingly, how you can get them and use them. http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/info/stem_cell/whatarestemcells.php

This is an article about acupuncture and how it is supposed to work. Apparently, there have been many studies on its effects and it's actually supposed to work. http://www.sciencebase.com/science-blog/how-does-acupuncture-work

This seemed like scifi, like something from Star Trek. An Australian group has made the basics of an eye implant similar to a cochlear ear implant. it allows the user to see again. The quality isn't as good as we see, but it allows them to see the outlines of objects. http://www.gizmowatch.com/entry/bionic-eye-implant-lets-a-man-see-again-just-partially-for-now/
