Great lectures. I think the question based reviews are the most effective way of many students to really get the subject and remember it for the long run. Thank you very much and please make question based reviews for all the subjects :))

Can you please explain why the Hb electrophoresis remains normal in Alpha thalassemia? Are the electrophoresis patterns based on Beta chains? And does electrophoresis remain normal in HbH as well?
Thank you so much for your videos
