Daniel Reda - An Introduction to Biotechnology and Bioinformatics

[aristotle358]

Don't know how these yanks can sit through such long lectures!

[selftaughtninja]

@aristotle358 because its interesting. I once watched a 5 hr lecture on youtube.

[teewilson333]

@aristotle358 Because we "yanks" whatever that means, are not held back by Aristotle's long outdated views. Well actually we are....Because his 2000 year old way of conducting politics has not changed, We all suffer the problems accumulated by business men in politics rather than analytic and scientific people. You can partially thank Aristotle for that....

[aristotle358]

@teewilson333 I know that Aristotle's thinking is antiquainted. It's only a user-name ( I was new to this sort of thing and didn't know what name to use so I put Aristotle 358). Of course scientific advancement and biotechnology are important. The brain has a limited concentraton span and it would make more sense in order to retain information to have shorter lectures or lectures with a coffee-break every so often.

[aristotle358]

@teewilson333 P.S. are you sure your not thinking of Plato when it comes to politics?

[teewilson333]

@aristotle358 Maybe.....To be truthful i was just talking out of my ass. I assumed Aristotle and then blamed him for the inefficiency of politics and the mess of problems resulting from it. Likely, in his time it worked rather efficiently.

sheldon cooper?

@KilljoySoftware In a 90s documentary called the Stuff of Science, a Japanese CEO who's company was getting into automated sequencing stated that the 21 century would be the century of Biology.

[MetaIhead89]

Very interesting!

[donovanbill]

most interesting video I've seen on the topic of natural selection and technology. amazing. also, I loved seeing the animations of dna/rna production.

[sachibbsr]

Massively awe-inspiring and breathtaking ... Seth kept me glued till the end ...

[putzie123456789]

I may be being overly critical, I just had higher expectations for an introductory lecture for Biotechnology and Bioinformatics from the "university of singularity"

[putzie123456789]

this could very well be an introduction lecture for an undergraduate life sciences course in any university. Can someone explain why people are paying 25000 dollers for ten weeks of this?

[Haliotro]

Why is the audience so absolutely inept?.... The guy asked what the C, G, A, Ts are made of in DNA...

wow

[3tangle3]

@probably an engineer or someone who is good with digital software but not great on bioknowledge

[SonOfNye]

@Haliotro I'm assuming they aren't involved in biology, and if they are they are failures.

[DraskyVanderhoff]

"I'm the Internet!!! And i want more hardcore amateur porn , so go now a upload yourself doing nasty things or i will they your mom everything you have done in your entire life! YOU KNOW THAT I HAVE THE POWER!!!" That would be scary O.o

[ShinsenKatanaMaster]

Astonishing!!!

[ShinsenKatanaMaster]

Astonoishing!!!

[playsbba018]

the video starting at 22:39 blew my mind...amazing stuff

[Pressondude]

I wanna know where he got these videos. I'm heavily interested in bioinformatics

[SonOfNye]

@Pressondude From the looks of it they came from the Mastering Biology website run by the Pearson publishing company.

[zoltalar]

Great video!

[staaberelli]

ok i am hooked but can I get the DNA that will improve my Math Skills so i can become a Physicists/Mathematician.Bioin­formatics please?

[MrMujama]

Bio-informatics is real.Great presentation Reda.

[sonnytechno]

Ich kann meinen Vorgängern nur zustimmen. Ich studiere Molekulare Biologie und das ist'n echt cooler Einblick in die Materie!!!

Danke & Respekt an Daniel Reda

[jwil2570]

Daniel Reda is the man!

Thank you, that is all.

[goop57]

awesome video!

[ModelingTheMasters]

Mind blowing for sure! Great work Daniel - love the video quality and editing as well!

[accarmichael]

This is an incredible introduction to the mind-blowing things coming out of biotechnology and bioinformatics. Daniel Reda gives an engaging and comprehensive view of what is coming in the future!

[chroniclerofthe70s]

@accarmichael Introduction is misleading. Atoms within our bodies with greater atomic mass than hydrogen and helium come from fusion reactions in the core of stars. Supernovae then distribute these heavier atoms throughout intersteller space. Spontaneous order of more complex moleculer structures and self assembly of cellular cells and cellular structures results in an increase of entropy of the universe via free energy. However, I still enjoyed the lecture.
