I'm a PhD student in Microbiology who has never taken a formal microbiology course. I'm watching your videos in preparation for my comprehensive exam. Your videos are a lifesaver! Just know you are serving as a support system for this first-generation Latina in microbiology; thank you so much!

Julie, you are such a beautiful orator, teacher, and woman! I smile throughout your lectures, your verbal fluidity, and content delivery is immaculate. Your channel is an absolute gem.

You’re an amazing orator and teacher. God Bless You. You explain everything so easy to understand and remember. I'm thankful I found your youtube page. Your platform is a diamond in the rough!

Thank you! Your lectures are so much more engaging than my professor's. Instead of falling asleep, I'm going: wow, no way!!

Dr. Wells, you are an awesome professor. Thank you for being my youtube professor. You deserve a gold medal. :) Love your videos!!! Thank you so much for your time. I have learned a lot from your lectures.

Thank you so much for this. When my eyes are too tired I study this way and it really helps until I can get food and sleep to absorb the material. You're awesome.

You are legend just wow you help us to learn effortlessly ❤

These videos are immensely helpful! Thank you so much for sharing them 💕💕💕🦠🦠🦠

Thank you for posting your videos. They are a tremendous help in learning about microbiology. More importantly however, thank you from the bottom of my feminist heart, for including the information about Rosalind Franklin’s MAJOR contribution to the discovery of DNA’s structure! Women’s roles in scientific discoveries are too often overlooked.

You are a legend, thank you.

All this stuff and I haven't paid tuition!! Thank you Julie.

Thank you for making this. I'm taking microbiology right now and my professor half explains things and flies through the material and I'm feeling very overwhelmed. The book we are using is Microbiology: An Introduction (13th Edition), but I figured that the majority of the information on this topic should be the same. Thank you for explaining these complicated topics slowly and clearly. I really enjoyed the cookbook analogy.

This stuff is gold. Thanks

Another great lecture that helped me immensely. Thank you professor 🙏

where can i find Chapter 9 - Physical and Chemical Control of Microbes

I can not thank you enough for this. I've been having such a hard time finding Material for this course

Thank you Julie you are the reason I got a 98% A in Microbiology ❤️ much love

Thank you so much 🙏 professor!

I'm so grateful for these comments

I love you, you explained everything so well

Please send me this pdf 😟

You are amazing!!!!

Thank you ❤️

Please take note that some species of bacteria do have linear chromosomes (e.g., Borrelia burgdorferi, the etiologic agent of Lyme disease).

Is there anyway we can get the PowerPoint slides or a pdf file?

what book does she use?

great thanks

Love you ✌️...thanks a lot

This is painful/distracting for me to listen to because of all the microphone 't' and 'p' and 'f' sounds. I might be more sensitive than others. I had to pause/stop the video 5.5 minutes in.

Agricultural microbiology.

Omg no offense but I hate this class Im really thinking of not doing nursing I have a lot to think about in the next few weeks my average is an 87 so far but the stress of this class and working full time I’m almost at my breaking point

Are you clicking something too! C”mon man!

How did DNA fit inside a bacteria before evolutionary step of packaging and coiling it?
