I love the topic selection for this series, and our friendly neighborhood entomologist is an S-tier science communicator.

As a bionformatician working in genetics + cancer research, I must admit I haven't watched any of this series (since most of the topics covered are things I'm already very familiar with). But when I saw my specialty covered I just HAD to watch it. And I must say, the host for this series is fantastic! Such an amazing communicator, despite knowing pretty much all of what was said already I was fully engaged throughout. Obviously bioinformatics is a very broad subject, but if anyone has any question, mainly about the genetics and genetic analysis side of bioinformatics (since that is my field) I'd love to try and answer them below!

I’m so excited because the programming side of bioinformatics is literally what I went to school for!! Watching a video about what I’m doing now on a channel I’ve been obsessed with since high school is making me giddy 😁

I am a data scientist working in the field of Rheumatology. My 10 year old daughter has been asking what I do for work, and I have had a very difficult time explaining what that is at an age-appropriate level. Thank you for boiling down such a broad field into something so understandable! I'm looking forward to showing her this video which captures the simplified yet robust terms that have eluded me up to this point.

we need a whole crash course series on bioinformatics subject [covering genomics proteomics , immunoinformatics etc] please !!!!

I'm currently studying a PhD and it involves analysing health data to find risk factors for childhood obesity/overweight in order to help public health officials fight the obesity/overweight epidemic.

Love that the platypus has a tiny computer for this episode!!

I hate learning and people make it confusing when I'm learning but you make it fun and easy

Dr. Sammy I love your stale - the way you are sharing you knowledge with us . And that is a compliment coming from a grandmother . Listing to you I feel young

Hi ❤❤❤❤❤. I have an exam tommorow and I love ur teachings so far

Interesting series

I love that community science has been such an easily accessible thing for me to do in my lifetime.

Yay, this is what I got my Master's in (bioinformatics, specifically plant virology and phylogenetic analysis)!

New CrashCourse? Poggers!

Can you do a crash course on the HIV/AIDS outbreak?

My wife and I had a Zika infection in 2015 and lemme tell ya we were nonfunctional for a week. It's not deadly but it's not mild either.

Was thinking to go for bioinformatics to help save the native population can that be done at this point?

When your crash course video is called 'Algorithms arent just for tiktok'... Should be 'titles are for algorithms'

Brazil mentioned!

Well now all I can think about is bagel bites

Ham and sausage with pineapple and extra cheese on a thin flat pizza crust!🍕😊👍

Im on the verge of switching majors from CS to bioinformatics.

I feel seen.

Thinking how long it took for a him to learn to pronounce Minas Gerais perfectly.

Information in Biology? I doubt it. XD

I was thinking we just use ai and i asked chat gpt and i read the word bioinformatics as it said the same word at 6:05

Sausage and mushroom. Thin. Flat.

Bro

SECOND!

No child should be eating pizza for lunch
