For the first lecture of my 2021 Columbia University virology course, we define viruses, discuss their discovery and fundamental properties, including whether or not they are alive, and explain why they are the most amazing and intriguing biological entities on Earth. As we enter the second year of the 2020 Pandemic, there is no better time to learn about viruses!

- Who Am I? -
I’m Vincent Racaniello, Earth’s Virology Professor.
I’m also a professor of virology at Columbia University in New York. I’ve been doing research on viruses since 1976, and teaching virology in classrooms and online since 1999. On this KZbin channel I share videos of my lectures, podcasts, and more.
New videos are uploaded multiple days a week.
I don’t monetize my videos because it’s disruptive to learning. If you would like to support our work, go over to www.microbe.tv...
