I really enjoy Hazel's lectures. She has a communication style that is very suitable for me.

Some and some are not and which is completely situational

Lectures 1-20 are not available. These selected lecture videos where specifically recorded because they represent the topics that are unique to 7.013: Developmental Biology, Neurobiology, Stem Cells, and Cancer. For additional lecture videos on Introductory Biology that complement these, please see 7.01SC Fundamentals of Biology, 7.012 Introductory Biology, and 7.014 Introductory Biology.

***** Thanks! I'm learning all of the sciences before I take them so I don't have to worry about failing a class after paying real money for it.

What is the difference between those 3 introductory classes?

This right here is the reason Mit hasn't become a laughing stock like the ivy league has. Education instead of pomposity is emphasized.

@@mitocw Yes but she's so awesome at explaining :)

Adam Malone I love her so much :)

Mangold died from a gas heater explosion in her home after moving to Berlin after earning her PhD (her dissertation has a lot of the organizer data). She died before her results were published, thus being ineligible for the Nobel Prize.

These selected lecture videos represent the topics that are unique to 7.013: Developmental Biology, Neurobiology, Stem Cells, and Cancer. These lecture videos were filmed during Spring 2011. For additional lecture videos on Introductory Biology, please see 7.01SC Fundamentals of Biology (Alternative Approaches to Molecular Biology | MIT 7.01SC Fundamentals of Biology), 7.012 Introductory Biology (Lec 1 | MIT 7.012 Introduction to Biology, Fall 2004), and 7.014 Introductory Biology (Lec 1 | MIT 7.014 Introductory Biology, Spring 2005).

+MrOurTown A free science is an outdated science.

This is introductory Biology. It is the foundation of Biology. It is unlikely to change as research and development rely on the principles of basic biology. If we would to consider a class say, on stem cells, this field is relatively new and still hot research; MIT might be likely to take down an old set of videos and update it with new video lectures as the knowledge of stem cells change over time.

Wow bravo bravo how brilliant!!! Of course topics which are taught in university (even though they are INTRODUCTION LECTURES) must be imposable to comprehend.

My theory is that it vents out tutorial frustration. That, or the MIT administration is slowly trying to give their staff respiratory disease.

it gives the time to assimilate7learn. powerpoints is to fast to learn

blackboards are the best way of teach, it's been proven over and over...

Besides the awesome content, I really like her handwriting. 👍🏻

Most top schools discourage the use of technology for its own sake. I had a professor once say to us "If you want pointless conspicuous consumerism, go to the mall instead." There is a lack of dignity in over-technifying everything. And besides, your brain works differently when you type than it does when you write. The physical act of writing makes you slow down more. Though I'm not a huge fan of the air quality in a classical classroom...
