OH MY GOODNESS Crash Course you have absolutely NO idea what this series means to me. I literally just started doing my year-end project on the Immune System and I've been scrambling around for material! THANK YOU!!! for the resources, the video, everything!
Thank you for talking about cytokines! I feel like they are always forgotten about but are key players in the immune system - an immunology intern studying cytokines :)
It's really weird considering all these defences that any human being can carry a baby to term. The body must work full-time to suppress the immune response to not harm the baby. Since we can get ill and well again during pregnancy the body must also be able to compartmentalize the immune response: fight the germs yet keep the baby safe. Would be brilliant to know how to do that in transplant medicine: fight germs yet keep the donated organ(s) safe. Mind boggling.
I'm glad to see these mentions of the indigenous peoples at the end of the video! Perhaps Crash Course could donate to tribal authorities/representative groups and organisations? I'm sure they have projects and funds that would appreciate some donations and would do a lot of good. Here in NZ, we've spent over 40 years doing historical reparations with Māori. So it's weird to see acknowledgements that don't come with remedies... it can come off a bit hollow and virtue-signal-y. Like, "We're making money on your stolen land and, no, you can't have any... but here's a shout out! And people can read about stuff online and engage if they want!" I know it's complicated and ultimately the responsibility probably sits with govt... but yeah. Just a thought.
2:22 - don't you mean guts/intestines, especially the large intestine? From what I've found, very few bacteria can survive in a human stomach and the ones that do aren't very friendly...
Did anyone else (who isn't in an immunology class) think that malaria was a virus and not a protozoa? I love Crash Course for helping me learn new things!
Between thought cafe, minute earth and kurzgesagt i think there's a contest for drawing the cutest cells and pathogens.
Thought cafe is best
lol the Immune System episodes were a whole party... I wanted plushies of all those cells
I'd add TEDed - I mean, how adorable is this? ua-cam.com/video/PSRJfaAYkW4/v-deo.html&ab_channel=TED-Ed
8:39 for any Cells at Work fans, the cytotoxic T cells are the same as the killer T cells in the show. Same thing, different name.
I took my first immunology exam today and this was a pretty good summary of it, minus the complement pathways.
Prions are like zombie proteins “biting” healthy proteins to make more zombies
Crash course Inspires me to work on putting out free educational courses in the future when I can . Thank you ❤️
Crash Course is simply the best.
OMG the macrophage is SO ADORABLE - and helpful! * o * can we get a macrophage sticker or pin - or plushie?
Of all the Crash Course episodes, this one may have my favourite animations yet!
This series is teaching me more than my whole semester of Infectious diseases!

I wish I had this during my microbiology courses! Now im just watching for fun! Great video :]

This was a immune system summary I was looking for, thank you CC team! :)
Another great video!!
Yay I love these anatomy lessons they’re the best!!!!!!
Gonna use this later when I reach this topic in AP Bio
Thanks a ton

Before this I've always thought that ringworm was a worm
Are there any prion diseases that we can cure, or prevent? How would a cure against a prion disease even work?

Definitely useful series to have during a global pandemic. Looking fwd to seeing more.
Quote I heard from a neurosurgeon regarding a patient with a prion disease: "That was the only time I ever triple-gloved for an operation"
