Spiders in the lab

This page contains links to sites or web pages that deal with scientific research – into the biology of spiders and into spider silk. There is increasing interest in spider silk, which is reputed to be stronger than steel for its weight and tougher than Kevlar as bullet-proof fabric. The practical applications are virtually limitless when scientists manage to unravel the secret of spider silk and produce or synthesise the material. Another area of research interest is sight – how do spiders see with three or four pairs of eyes?
