I have only listen for about 5 min but I can tell he's excited about what he's doing! His smiles induced one in me. I love people like this.

I'm actually quite surprised they offer this as, what seems to be, an undergraduate course. Chemical biology is an interdisciplinary field of research with a journal of its own. I didn't have chemical biology as a course at my home university. This is a great course

I'm watching this for fun and it took 27 minutes for the disclaimer of "if you didn't do the last OC you're fucked".

Dangit...

this person took forever talking about the rules for his class and not talking about the subject of this video
