  • The kidneys are mysterious little bean-shaped organs responsible for filtering your blood and excreting all that waste through your urine. Let me walk you through some of the anatomy and physiology at work here.

    Hi, I’m Patrick. I’m a freelance science writer based in the San Francisco Bay Area. I hold a bachelor’s degree in Athletic Training and a master’s in clinical exercise physiology. I used to work in the clinical setting as a certified athletic trainer, physical therapy aide, and a certified strength and conditioning specialist. After working in the clinical setting, I went back to school and became a teacher. The goal of my content is to help normal people, not just pre-med students, learn about the human body. That might mean explaining a topic from an anatomy class or exploring a topic from medical history.

    It’s really hard to find good simple yet comprehensive and complete introduction videos to anatomy so I really appreciate this
    I would love to see one explaining the anatomy and physiology of the hand/fingers
    I know it’s really complicated and complex anatomy but that’s exactly why I think you would do such a great job with this video
    It would be really helpful to see a video explaining movements of the different fingers wrist and which muscles and tendons are involved and such
    Being a drummer myself working through a injury this would be really useful knowledge in a practical sense but as a giant anatomy nerd it would just be really interesting to see as well

For example fenestrations were shown in a diagram. I would like to know more about them, and about structures like them in other parts of the kidney.

    It’s really awesome for students that’s great help but if Unreally wanna help the kidney patients please make it very simple, so the less educated ppl or highly educated but unaware of medical sciences will understand easily , because our mind controls the body all functions of each organ , if the people continuously watch the video that how normal kidney works soon or later their mind will push the kidney for normal functioning , the process may be slow or fast according to body’s physiology but it will work, that’s how you can help the hopeless people, the damage of kidneys is always fast because the patient accepts that kidneys are not working by giving conscious commands to the brain you can reverse the way mind deals with the kidneys, I hope you got what I wanted to say. Video is an excellent effort keep it up.

    Can I ask for advice of what do you think should come first before studying Anatomy and Physiology? I am at the predicament of learning biology and high school chemistry first before anatomy and physiology. I'm just studying on my own, before going to college, I at least want to be level headed and not struggle in class😆

I've heard kidney failure has a higher concentration of Mg+2 and I'm curious why that would be because kidney failure is said to be a result of Mg+2 deficiency/Ca posioning. Can you speak about the normal electrolyte ratios that are supposed to be maintained in the blood?

    9:52 “big proteins, like ammonia”: Ammonia is NH3; it’s not a big protein. It’s not a protein at all. It’s a small molecule, much smaller than any protein. A slip of the tongue perhaps. On the whole, though, it’s a pretty good video so far.
