I have been listening to your course since 2016. I was a mere medical student. Now graduated and working, and I still love your course. Thank you professor for putting so much out there. Because you chose to upload your course online I was able to listen from Turkey. ❤
Thank you Professor, I attended your course in 2021 and have learned so much about virology as a result, the subject gets more interesting the more I understand about viruses.
I listened to your first Virology lecture a couple of years ago and understood pretty much zero. I'll listen again to this to see if anything has changed haha! Thanks for making this publically available.
Nice to see some familiar faces in the same boat as me, second time through as well. I'm looking up porcelain filters and learning about Chamberland filters
@@johnellmakerI'm encouraged that I did in fact remember somethings from the first time. The wowed points!!! And now, instead of being intimidated by the vastness of the info provided, I'm now fascinated to know more!!! Blessings
Hi from Brazil. I discovered your course today. I am doing my PhD in health sciences and foucusing in viroly, specifically I am doing my research in mosquitoes virome. Your course will definitely be helpful!
Thanks Dr. for your classes. Even an average Joe can listen & learn something. And I want to thank you for your chats with Dr. Offit. as well. RUclips is wonderful.
Thank you Professor! I took the first 12 of your lectures in 2022, before my brain fried😊 I'm trying again, you're a brilliant human for giving your time freely, even for non-science people like me.❤
Love, LOVE this professor! I'm a "older (lol)" investment professional who's always loved bio-sciences and I have focused successfully on investments in pharma' and biotech. I find his course absolutely fantastic and as a habitual "returning student" I just wish I'd had him as my first life sciences professor at UCLA in the 1980's!! For you students', get passed the cramming and really absorb his lectures; you don't know how fortunate you are to have this incredible professor. I find myself many years post my biology studies coming back for refresher lectures as new understandings in novel sciences such as CRSPR and CAR T emerge. Can't thank you enough for your amazing "classes", Professor...thank you!
Professor Vincent, I am a medical student and we had your lecture presented to us during our Pediatric Viral Diseases classes as an introduction to the course. I have never been a fan of Virology due to its complexity, however watching your presentation completely shifted my perspective. For the first time, I found myself genuinely intrigued by the nuances of viral diseases. I wanted to reach out and express my appreciation for making virology not only understandable but also inspiring. Thank you for sparking a new interest in a field I once found intimidating.
Thank you for the 2024 course. Love science and took the 2023 course last year and after going through this first class, I have great recall of my first class in 2023. By the way I am wowed by phages. They are amazing.Lis
Love your course, it was my first introduction to viruses back in 2020. I was wondering if you could write a paper or do a TWIV tracing the pandemic from start to finish using your 2020 lectures?
Sir certainly I'll WOW you if you make your channels an one-stop site for all virus related subjects, a would-be great achievement benefiting humanity. Thank you for your tireless efforts to educate the poblic👍
@willNewcomb yes! Wouldn't that be great. If a writer understands all of it, it helps them be better informed; if they understand none of it, it helps them be more humble? 🧠🐁📑🌅
@@eageraltoI'm a non medic and I understood far more of this first lecture than I did the first lecture a couple of years ago. I think he's 'dumbed down' it a bit for us mortals! The subsequent lectures (2 & 3) are way beyond my pay grade haha!
@MicrobeTV Hi Vincent. I really enjoy these lectures - I watch them every year & each time I pick up something I hadn't noticed before.......for example, the image showing large blooms of algae (approx 30 minutes in) is off the coast of Cornwall, UK The spread is roughly from Falmouth up to Plymouth and stretching across towards the Channel Islands & Brittany/Normandy in northern France. I noticed you said this was somewhere in Europe but you weren't sure exactly where - in next year's lectures you can confidently tell your growing audience exactly where this algal bloom was. Looking forward to the rest of the series. Please keep up your excellent work
since some viruses stablish mutualistic or symbiotic relationships with their hosts, should we change the classical definition of viruses "obligate parasites"? I know that's a philosophical qüestion same as if they are alive, but I would like to know your opinion. Thanks for your great lectures
much better! pancake is a bit diseptive of you, nobody ever seen the bottom and i never seen a edge. .... but how many poisons/dna you add to isolate a virus..6 or more..? and for a bacteria isolation? isolation redefined...?
@wowi1802 learn to read, flerf. *_OBLIGATE INTRACELLULAR_* bacteria, fungi and Protozoa. What do the two words mean? Also plenty of people have seen the curve. Problem is you deny objective reality. Gotta lie to flerf.
@@sithwolf8017 NO, these exist, but do no harm.are like cleanup crew. but virus exist only in fiction and computers. search: germ theory debunked./.end of virology. :)
You not only love your work but you also show care and comfort to all your patients, I want to thank you for the extra time you took to ensure my infection is completely gone. Your medication worked successfully, Thank you, @DrAzziza .........

Listening to TWIV every week has definitely helped my comprehension!
Same here@WillNewcomb. The first class in 2024 is so much easier for me this time since I have done Office Hours and the 2023 Virology course.

I like your course. Never stop learning.

Yesterday I finished 2023 virology course. Now I am in 2024 course. I m glad. Hello from Kazakhstan!
I just started the 2024 course. Is it important to finish previous courses to better understand?
@@zahrashahid9610 I believe they are mostly the same, just updated with new information every year
Thank you Professor! I took the first 12 of your lectures in 2022, before my brain fried😊 I'm trying again, you're a brilliant human for giving your time freely, even for non-science people like me.❤
Glad you’re doing this again in 2024! Let’s go!!!
Thank you for sharing this freely and believing in free education. I really appreciate it!loved this first lecture and looking forward to more
Thank you, Vincent!

I followed this in 2021 and I think I'll do it again!
Super interesting, wish I would have had such fantastic instruction at University of California, may have stayed a biology major

Welcome Back 2024!
Thank you very much.
Enjoy Your Day!
Be Safe & Stay Encouraged!

Coming back because I love virology. This professor is lucid in his presentation. Good job professor!
Just a high school student who interested so much in virology and wanna learn much .
Glad to find these lectures
Thank you for sharing this course! And thank you for TWIV--these help to educate us all!
42:37
Viruses aren't classified as living
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Looking forward to all of the 2024 lectures.
I watched some of the 2023 lessons and I loved them, and I'll definitely be following the 2024 lessons.
Thank you, Professor!
Sir certainly I'll WOW you if you make your channels an one-stop site for all virus related subjects, a would-be great achievement benefiting humanity.
Thank you for your tireless efforts to educate the poblic👍
Your book on virology is marvellous and extremely didactic
The examples at minute 23:00 are the only known beneficial relations between host & virus? Do you have any examples for humans?
thank you very much and may god bless you
I am already a monthly subscriber.
Thanks!
Oh how I wish this lecture was in finnish 🇫🇮..
..but loving this still, even though its a little hard as english is not my native
Watching your videos since 2018.
Thank you sir
This first lecture should be compulsory listening for every journalist writing about current health issues.

I told Vincent in one of his live "Office Hours" chats after the first week of the course. He might remember...
@@peteglass3496 I expect he wrote it on a sticky note ......and then promptly lost it 🤣
Thank you ❤
since some viruses stablish mutualistic or symbiotic relationships with their hosts, should we change the classical definition of viruses "obligate parasites"? I know that's a philosophical qüestion same as if they are alive, but I would like to know your opinion.
Thanks for your great lectures
Super engaging.
Hi! Love the first section. Is there anywhere I can get the slides from?
Are you talking about Somatids ?
Should i get the 5th edition of these books or is the 6th edition coming out any time soon?
the number of viruses on a pin relates to the medieval discussion of how many angels can stand on a pin.
may I have a link of principle of virology, fifth edition... thank you
The intro music is getting better every year.
What’s your job? “I’m a whale breath catcher”
😅😂
how many genomes does one hiv positive person carry?
Thank you for such an amazing course! Is there a link to immunology course you were talking about? thank you)
Just search for "Brianne Barker" perhaps add immunology. It looks like there is a fresh set of 2023 lectures.
Oh no! I was visiting downtown NYC in May for a week. Had I known that I could visit « The Incubator » I would have!😢
in the middle age people asked about how many angels can dance on the head of a pin....I think it's something deeply rooted in our culture 😂
Does he talk about virus isolation here?
31:00 This is obviously Cornwall.
Can we do lectures like this and talk every time about different viruses
Thank you for everything and I can get a bdf lectuers or ppw
43:30 The fomite theory of spread was shown to be insignificant It was the aerosol, dammit.
I hope I don’t have HSV2… that would be a bit scary
