Lander is truly one of the best professors out there we need more people like him in education. he truly makes you think and wonder about the world around us.

I love this professor. I read an interview with him in my Cambell reese book. I thought he looked familiar :)

What's really amazing is how this was apparently taught in 2004 but since then we've discovered so much on top of this.

RNAi for example

watcing this I get the sense that lander here is a really good teacher and his class is really sharp and involved.

Doesn't it make sense to tell use what RNA exactly is and how its derived before teaching us Biology 114??

[VoteNixon2008]

Your cells are their own organism.

[jessicapourchot]

my bio instructor taught micro RNA as siRNA...is this correct? I see some put comments and put RNAi?

[baptistic]

really truly

[baptistic]

maybe because it is unable to perform all of those activities outside of the human body.

[calvinhobbesliker2]

how come every cell in our bodies isn't an organism if it performs living activities such as consumption, elimination of waste, and reproduction?

[rolaranu]

¿ RNAi? explain me that, please

[YureruMoneyBox]

woww thanks. this helped me on my ap bio :D

[krazyMaz]
