Introduction to viruses

"I can't imagine a more appropriate topic to make a video on." Lol. 11 years later, watching this during the coronavirus pandemic, it's a very appropriate topic.

planned to watch this during the swine flu. watching it during the corona lock down. took 11 years.

This is what I missed when i was studying biology in school and eventually lost interest due to lack of visual elements to understand things better.. only textbooks with images never helped.. students today should really make use of this stuff to their advantage and learn better..

Love your enthusiasm. Learned way more in 23mins and 17sec than the whole semester of uni. Thanks again for your videos!

[nicoleatkins]

Its clear in all your videos that you love what you're talking about. The enthusiasm you have for teaching makes me excited to learn, and makes the information so much easier to retain!

[khanacademy]

Probably because they're fascinating :)

"i take my genes personally, they define who i am" that made me giggle

[shinra]

I think it's wonderful how you always explain the material and I could feel how much you love biology. keep it up! this helps a lot.

im here for my honors bio class-
honestly this explained viruses very well, much better than what we went over in class!

I love the philosophical side of this. You managed to really creep me out and made me interested in the topic beyond having to study it. Thank you for all the hard work!

This man is actually the best teacher I've ever had in social media his accent is understandable he explains every detail so clearly and every time I watch his videos every detail remains in my memory.

So I just wanted to say you're terrific thank you keep going we learn a lot

Viruses are so facinating. And the theory that Viruses would have come from outer space is very interesting and makes a awesome plot for a movie.

Are you a college teacher? If not, you should be! Your explanations are awesome, a 10 minute video is more informative than a 2 hour lecture.

I love how enthusiastic he is. Thanks to my biology professor for giving us the link to this video.

[waje]

i love how he gets a little philosophical in most vids xD keeps stuff interesting

[sabrinabasaria]

I love the philosophical question you posed! Great videos. You did a great job explaining this. thank you

[Arghavan]

I read the chapter but did understand as much as i do now after watching your video, really appreciate it 

[caspereeko]

"i take my genes personally, they define who i am" But then you say: "Are viruses life?" but they also have genetic material. So is life is about metabolism or having genetic material or both. Or is the genetic material just a definition of life?.

In the military we have a saying "KISS: Keep It Simple, Stupid" Dumb down some of these video to make it a bit easier to understand. Not everyone, myself is one of them, can understand everything you are trying to explain.
