    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!

    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.

    @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.
