Hello, could you please give some information regarding this channel and the medical books
esources your using in these great videos? are you an MD or a researcher?

[@LEARNBLOOD]

Hi DocHemulin, thanks for your interest. I'm a junior doctor from the UK. The information is taken from a variety of sources, usually I would start with Hoffbrand's 'Essential Haematology' and then check the literature for other reviews.
