    Watched it over a year ago for micro, drew it about 10 times and still remember the salient points. Watching again to refresh for step1 studying. Every bit of important structural virology in 10 minutes! So awesome thanks dude.

    Hi!!! I’m actually looking for the way how to study smart with the viruses and (it’s a lot to remember and they look and sound a like so it’s kinda hard to remember for me without a concept map in which I always do but this time it’s already 1 am and I don’t wanna go to sleep without familiarizing viruses.) Thank you so much this is really a big help for me even though it’s 6 years ago, very useful for a student like me who study on their own.

    Not that these are any better but for DNA Naked I think "Dana (DNA) and PAPP aka Dad/Granddad (Parvo, adenosine, papilloma, polyoma) are naked".
    For (Neg) RNA to help remember "Bad Prof (professors) get a (Neg) Rating (RNA)".
    Cheers if it helps someone.
