Agarose Gel Electrophoresis, DNA Sequencing, PCR, Excerpt 1 | MIT 7.01SC Fundamentals of Biology

[@johnburke5800]

The lecturer is Dr Eric Lander, a pioneer in genetics and quite possibly the smartest person I have ever met. His combination of organization, enthusiasm and accuracy is a wonder to behold.

[@claricegarcia7889]

I wish to meet him also. Thank you for sharing!

[@TheCD45]

The fact that this course 7 lecture series is made open to the world for free is in itself revolutionary. This is what open access means. No bullshit whatsoever, just open open. I am a graduating PhD in biomedical sciences and had seen all the course 7 OCW courses when I was an undergrad in a different country. I always share this treasure cove with my mentees in the lab and what's sad is how they take this kind of course for granted. Understanding the foundational principles of how biology and the techniques we use now in the lab work is the first step to anything advanced. And you can actually see how they suffer when techniques do not work, especially because they do not understand the most basic of principles.

[@SixOhFive]

Your not getting credits for it though

[@SuperMsMasha]

I can't believe how easily he explains all the main steps that I couldn't figure out by listening to my professor. I hope he is well respected, because such a passion for teaching is measured in ppb!! Amazing!! Thank you!!

[@Rodztar13]

I envy the students who are taking class with this professor, he seems like the kind that actually gives a shit, he hasn't been soul crushed by academia.

[@MsTommyknocker]

Juan Rodriguez Martinez If you give a shit, you dont get sould crushed by academia.

[@forevereveryours]

MsTommyknocker you obviously haven't been in rigorous courses to understand what @Juan is talking about.

[@CrazycruxGaming]

He is a true professional! Amazing!

[@rakhshinda3538]

Juan Carlos Rodriguez Martinez I am sure of the same

[@koransumant6270]

@@forevereveryours yeah, it's made worse if you get involved in university politics, which is abundant and everlasting and a pain in all aspects. It's what ruins most professors

[@4dchess-Eri]

Finally I can say I learned at MIT.

[@MuhammadAfzal_9737]

Passion for teaching.. What a great guy. MIT is MIT due to people like you. God bless you more

[@eerielconstantine5051]

Everyone has already said what im thinking so I'll focus on what few have: this man's awesome chalkboard writing style. Its so graceful and relaxing omg, the mans amazing

[@littlegilmore7656]

I think I'm falling in love with genetics, this man's a genius!

[@gslvqz8812]

Prof. Lander seems to really embrace and enjoy his role as a Teacher. You can tell how passionate he is about teaching... I love when a Professor actually loves his profession and strives to give the best he has to his class.

[@eslamnahla]

This prof. Proves that the way you teach is more important than the knowledge

[@cssruthi5125]

I love how he makes complex ideas seem obvious! also the story about saving 4 million dollars was super cool! Thank you so much! if you're reading this Sir

[@KhalidAli-vr7cm]

the best genetic lesson i have ever seen

[@AkashSingh-xo3zv]

This shows What makes America GREAT. You enjoy what you do.

[@TheJessicatan82]

THIS PROF IS SO AWESOME! learning these subjects from my teacher was really boring since all she does is sit there and talk. The way she teaches makes the subjects uninteresting, but this professors has passion when he teaches, and makes it so much more interesting and fun. Also, I finally understand what I have been struggling with for a while now :)

[@kidschannel6614]

I agree

[@ibrahimomoyayi9325]

thıs ıs what you get when u love what u do

[@adague3776]

This professor is amazing! We need more of him around.

[@lovebunnykaz]

He makes this so exciting :) Hes making my lab reports bearable.

[@patatas345]

This really helped me with a bit on my a-level! Thanks!

[@varunnikam]

Wonderful lecture I envy those who actually attended this lecture in real life and I can say that MIT is the best institute.

[@ksbalaji1287]

Best teacher in the world! Loved the class.

[@somenerdyblonde]

I've been trying to understand these concepts for PCR with no luck, and I FINALLY UNDERSTAND. Thank you!

[@gidigida]

I'm an EE major .. but I watched the whole video. Truly amazing teacher.

[@ForlanElCapo]

really helpful vid as i've got my biochemistry exam next week. i hate to be 'that guy', but when he draws out the deoxyribose at 14:00, he puts in a carbon at the top point of the pentagon (since every corner = carbon atom), when it should be an oxygen.

[@jessicawhite6369]

Thank you for posting! It's really cool that you use the chalkboard instead of slides. It's helpful to see you go through the steps. Big help! Thank you a lot.

[@626davidg]

This guy is amazing! Best professor I have ever seen lecture. Makes me wish I was at MIT.

[@languageandmana9255]

Biggggg thanks to you. I really was going crazy in this topic and i couldn't find out this method until i found this video! This teacher is so smart. Thank you so much for your genetics and science videos❤🙏

[@danpenny1540]

better explained than any lecturer at king's college london.... shoulda gone to MIT

[@chemistryinstruments7156]

This professor is really great, I'm getting his explanation and just sorry I didn't see this before.

[@FoodTech41]

I'm super impressed by his handwriting on the blackboard.

[@johnvandenberg8883]

This guy is a fantastic teacher. Keep it up bro!

[@TheSongSiren]

He's such a great teacher! So much easier to understand.

[@dongqu7959]

A great teacher makes difficulties easy.

[@aynescaelum7218]

[@bernardoabreu4910]

É impressionante como as aulas fluem muito bem. Eric Lander is an amazing teacher.

[@KSATica]

Is there any more videos about him. He is a great speaker and the way he presents the material he does it with enthusiam.

[@nitinahuja7840]

Damn you left at cliff hanger. Now i have to binge on it.

[@jameschiu4162]

Lol here I am, watching lectures for fun while working in my COVID lab. Lander makes me miss school, wish professors at UCSD were even a fraction as passionate as him.

[@SkyexSora]

cool lecturer with nice handwriting in chalkboard. best video explaining AGE so far I have found. thx for upload.

[@johnasd4685]

You are an excellent lecturer. Hope your students understand your great value.

[@y.a.5917]

Glad I found this vedio, as a chemist his talk made sense to me.

[@shadabalam1025]

marvellous teaching and superb teacher, love to attend each and every lecture :-)

[@yaangreece]

Someone give this guy a Nobel Prize please!

[@francois-xaviersicot1088]

Now we can look very fast at the sequence with PacBio or OxfordNanopore instruments :)

[@lordnicholasbuzanthefearle2155]

No wonder MIT is ..well MIT

Well.. Its a MIT prof so.... Yeah he's way better than our community college profs...

[@melloyello4339]

he makes this so interesting and really grabs your attention :O

[@bonbonpony]

14:50 OK so how to make such a 2',3'-di-deoxy nucleotide in a beaker? Oh, and BTW, where to get/synthesize the normal 3'-hydroxyl bases anyway? And what are those colourful fluorescent dyes to attach to them?

[@aaryarandive5072]

Bon Bon variable number of tandem repeat probes. These probes are radioactives. Idk why after 3 yrs but I still felt like sharing

[@gongyoo5755]

i thought i will get bored but really it was an interesting lecture thank you very much for your hard work and you seem to love genetic that why this lecture was interest , and i hope some day i will be like you

[@michaelayeni177]

I followed every word. Beautiful.

[@kennethshim8986]

lol, it's kinda "cute". cute and Nobel prize worthy.

[@sujankhadka8935]

This professor is so good! Ty so much

I wish our prof were this good at teaching 😭😭😭

[@IScreenshotNFTs]

NGS Illumina. Really changed the field.

[@ronaldmhondiwa6014]

better than my lecturers who jus read off powerpoint slides ...teaching at its essence

[@Movewithkhu]

for the first time in my life im glad i took biotech

[@benjaminemmanuel1108]

Man teaches like a hurricane! When you get pummeled with facts like that, you surely gonna look different. Prof, Sir, that was so cooool

[@l.fsader6021]

gon' learn today!

[@zacharywatson5667]

my professor would spend 1.5 hours talking about the same material and we wouldn't even properly finish on time, nor understand what the heck was going on.

[@anisaqilah89]

inspire me...amazing teacher.i'll be as you for future.

[@mamaricelazaragoza7216]

MAGNIFICO PROFESOR.

YOU TEACH VERY WELL

[@allykaevebalo]

WOW JUST WOW!!! Thank you Sir. 👏

[@mexicanfish21]

Everybody does it backwards in the lab at some point - gold and true story.

[@sxyngel]

WOWOOWOWO...MY FKING lecturer did not teach us this before giving us one hard lab report to do.;..so this video really helps

[@fedouaoumamar3658]

i'm watching this in 2018 and finally i can inderstand sequencing

[@jazzhopkid]

This was fantastic, great lecture.

[@xyx3835]

God bless you sir. Envy those students

[@marlenesoifer7219]

You are a fantastic aide. I'm working with a virus not bacteria.looking up dsdna group 2 there are many vectors for adenoviruses There must be a general Vector used for dsdna .

I like the fact, that this man uses the word "cute" so naturally. Should be normal.

[@dianachin8001]

Oh my !!! I'm love whit the way he teaches

[@rapsod1911]

This prof is great! Where is next part?!

[@RBG02005]

Doesn't have to be...it can be made of DNA. Eukaryotic cells just use RNA to make primers.

[@chicken8471]

I guess I don’t understand the part where he tells how you sequence the DNA are all of the T’s defective then you do that with all of the other bases or is it just some of the T’s that part didn’t make sense to me

[@aroosafarooq6838]

U can sequence all bases like Ts

[@ewam.6126]

my life's much easier now ! Thanks lol :)

[@vernacazares197]

Eric Lander!! wooow

This teacher is so amazing my teacher couldn't teach me shit.

[@StudentLankaTube]

Very informative

thank you alot that helped alot understand D base
