It's cruelly ironic that Franklin died because of an error in replicating the structure of her DNA.
“Erwin Schrödinger, yeah, the cat guy” You just offended every theoretical physicist ever
Thanks for another very interesting overview and for giving Franklin more than a passing reference.
Crashcourse is the gift that keeps on giving
You should talk about the revolutionary techniques that arose in Biotechnology and Biochemistry in the last 70 years, like PCR and the like
In our book there are three separate chapters of these topics that you included in freaking 12 minute video.
It's almost 4 am. I'm in a lab, imaging gentically modified worms (C. briggsae) ie using biotech.....and watching this.
Yes!!! I studied this and we did a lot of sequencing! Tough class but very interesting
Hi Crash Course Team! I'm wondering if you guys could do a series on cities? As in town planning. What makes good cities and look at both historical and present theories and cities? Would be amazing!!
Thanks man! This helped me alot
"Watson was a psuedo-scientist and stupid" this was the phrase of my teacher who said it at the starting of the lecture when she was teaching genetics. 😂😂
Your explanation is so good it enable us to learn easily.. Thank for your awesome video sir..😀
Thanks!
Beautiful work!
I LOVE THIS SERIES! It brings together two of my favorite subjects! And the discussions are insightful and informative and funny. Truly brilliant job, everyone!
This is a great series and I hope to see more like it.
Crash course history of science is the most interesting crash course of

Honestly, its so refreshing to hear scientific review and information while simultaneously calling out that community for its many ills. Thank you so much for this.
More about biotechnology please!!!!!!
