Microbiology & Infectious Disease (UMHB 6201)

Well explained with all its components. Better than reading 30 slides of ppt

Me gusta mucho más la introducción a este curso que la introducción aburrida que me dieron en la universidad. Se ve emocionante aprender el siguiente contenido

Loved the course! I would have liked to see more focus on commonly used antibiotics in primary care and more examples on types of commonly treated illnesses. Thank you

Excellent illustration, very informative. Lecturio is a life saver, I love it ?

Hmm slow Understanding Hi Hi Hi how many words for bedrock severs the best player from the bottom line of n mosses ?

Es excelente. Explica todo muy bien y te muestra lo necesario

sooooo sooo good!!! i understoof everything and is amazing that he included everything important about this bacteria! great teacher!

This lecture was extremely superficial. Serology is not discussed and neither the nuances of treatment of the pregnant patient. Cerebral and ocular forms of toxoplasmosis were also skipped. You need to get a physician specializing in Famliy Medicine to give this leture.

So useful, and yes the sound is on! It would be nice if you went deeper into the diagnosis

I call him the "Bacteria man". One of the best !! His level of knowledge in the course is spectacular. Great !! I don't dislike anything about him I will recommend to my colleagues medical students

well explained lectures well explained lectures well explained lectures well explained lectures

on of the best lecture thanks to professor and lecturio also

Exellent lecture. Thank for teaching me. Enjoy teaching you are best.

It's very well explained, but still need to be more detailed. For my parasites exam it is not suffice.

It is clear and well organized so that I could learn the subjects which seemed complicated when the lecturer presented them in university. It also made me interested in microbiology which I didn't even like to learn it. Thank you

The lecture was apt, the lecturer demonstrated a great understanding of the topic discussed

Great lecture, very allegoric, nice and easy to understand. Great didactics and methodology.

Muy claro y conciso con su conferencia, me agrada la manera de abordar el tema.

best teacher in the world. such a good summary . thank you

I loved it good explanation . will think of definetly subscribiing . straight to the point

I dont understand the neg review. This is such a good lecture covering the key points. I found it very helpful

The lecture is organized and precise. I would recommend it others. Moreover, it's less time consuming and as I said highlights what material is needed.

much wanted detail. thank you so much, perfect and informative.

Super simple and short! Great introduction to bacteriology and covers the major points.

The most fun I had learning about bacteria. That Italian New Yorker accent is everything! His E. coli lectures are the reason I passed my midterm and can totally discuss anything E. coli like a pro. So happy I discovered him and will definitely come back for more.

He explain so easy and make it fun to learn ! For me it’s better to watch videoes than read, and I like that I could watch the basics for the midterms before I start read !;)

I had a great time learning! It was short and very concise lecture series but I haven't able to keep going, I can't afford to pay the premium. Makes me sad because it helped me a lot. :(

This is a very clarifying lecture on Listeria, taught by a professor with very good teaching skills. And kinda funny.

very clear and detailed explanations,basics and detailed information is well explained.

Nice and comprehensive overview! Easy to understand/listen! Bacteria made easy.

Perfect... I undarstant many things here... Nice explanation Wish best for you

It's give simple explanation,easy to understand, Pharma is difficult to study but it helps us, thanks for app.

Brilliant course. It has a great differential diagnostics and an overall content is really good.

not enough details, like the fast staph. is Catalase-positive and non motile . more details needed.

I LOVE THIS DOCTOR , he make the lecture more absorbable

I really appreciate because it helped me a lot to grab such a complicated topic in a simple or decent way.i can't explain.eventually I loved to learn subjects in this manner

He was very wholesome,calm,clear composed and his use of references to his experience were wonderful.

I choose this rate because Dr Vincent deserve it. I really really like it. Definitely I will recommend to other students.

The lecture were so concise and upto the point. The questions following each video were very helpful in remembering the key facts.

no sound on the video. no sound on the video.

Clear, structured information. Up to date and well done! I would recommend this lecture.

high yield info, the overview is excellent and helped me towards the exams.

Good explanation of the drugs side effects, also very complete

I loved how thoroughly the pathogenicity of each microorganism was covered. It was also great that the Professors explained, in detail, exactly how the microorganisms infected their target cells.

I think I choose this because is very understanding the classes and the Dr is very practical

Very good information and I’m learning well knowledge which is helpful for my learning

I thought the introductory lectures were to indroductory and to much of a waste of time. I felt they introductory lecture were a insult to a medical students education level. I almost turned them off and went on to another section but, much later the same professor started to increase the level of knowledge in each video. This is the reason I am giving four stars. Please revise the introductory lectures in microbiology. A USMLE student does not have time to waste. I'm not done with the lectures on microbiology so I'd also like to comment later and here I feel I have been very generous with my review.

Very easily explained, great course content. Review videos are easy to access, in case the questions were not answered correctly.

I like it very much but the only issue is that the lectures are not complete about all the bacterial species of myobacteria for example, and I'd love to study all of them with lecturio cause it's simple and easy to understand so that I don't have to study the unavailable topics on other websites

Very well explained and fascinating lecture! Thank you very much!

I got to say, i love Racaniello's videos on microbiology so far. But this series of the enteric bacteria is confusing and disorganised. Some of the slides provided are different from the ones used by him. Sometimes the script adds some erroneous information, making the already confusing explanation even worse.

I like all your lectures, you give a great explanation of the material, thank you, Professor!

Thank you!!! All your lectures are very interesting and with nice explanations!

Thank you for your interesting, useful and simple way do explain difficult things!

I like this cause of a simply explaining things, and I would like to recommend it for nurses and also doctors.

Great teacher. Well explained. Learning outcomes well defined and all comprehended.

Really well explained. it was simple and concise but informative.

good lecture explaining everything about: Anti-HIV Agents: Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors (NsRTIs) – Antiviral Drugs

Excellent professor. I think this lecture in particular (fungi) is quick and just the essential facts.

Amazing lecture! So easy to understand and so enjoyable to watch; congratulations!

While watching this lectures I got the concepts way clearer than in my past semester, I like it is simplified, no need to explain the needless details, just what’s precise. I would recommend this course and already have

Good explaination, Love it! Easy to Understand, Keep it up!

Simple and easy going explaination! easy for me to understand. Keep it Up!

This lecture was great! I could understand what the professor was explaining and I understood it pretty well.

Very interesting and engaging. The energy from Dr. Racaniello is absolutely contagious, thank you very much!

I like how much simple he makes the tough materials in pharmacology course

This lecture is very informative yet concise. Everything that you need to know is here. Thank you

The lecture went a little fast for me, but it was OK. The problem I had was that the mobile app would interrupt the lecture with quizzes on the material before the instructor taught it. Is this intentional? I found it very frustrating.

It helps me alot to memorize the things..Thanku so much for such an amazing work ..it was really helpfull for me

Pretty well explained. Its short and very useful when i have to study for my college tests. Totally recommended!

I can't rate five stars to all the classes due to the time, eventually I will. Thank you Dr. Virtual hugs from Mexico.

Clear and precise explanation! Goes into the essence of this condition and correlates very well the clinical presentation

It helps me a lot to study the topic. Well covered! EXCELLENT!

So nice and well explained with great doctors ???? they make the impossible possible

It was fun learning the content. Frankness was encouraging. Important points have been outlined

I am a new Nursing student and with Lecturio I am learning a lot of new topics and getting a good foundation for my program. Especially in this Covid crisis, Lecturio is God sent. Thank you

The lectures as it is are very good however I wish they are more in detail and drug specific

Professor is very clear, and questions are accurate. I am learning lots of basic stuff about antibiotics

I really liked all the lectures They are to the point

J'ai adoré les cours ,ils m'ont économisé beaucoup de temps de révision ?

Dear Pravin Shukle, Thank you and thanks to Lecturio. I am writting from Turkey. Accorrding to the sistem here after 6years of medical school training we take an exam(TUS) in order to be able to continue specialization in diferent branch of medicine. Most of the questions in that exam were about points you emphasized on your lecture.

Thanks for the lecture, but I have a question regarding gram + bacterias, isn't Neisseria Gonorrhea the flora that causes gonorrhea ? to my knowledge it's a diplococcus and it's gram-negative, does it means that penicillins are also like similar in action just like cephalosporins especially the third generational ones?

The ease of listening and staying engaged is incredible...there's a lot of information, but before you know it, you've completed the lectures. The real-world approach makes it easy to focus, I appreciate it. Thanks

Learning with Lecturio is very easy for me because it is simplified, organized and medically relevant. Thumbs up.

Covered all high yield points , very nice illustration which helps in remembering things better

I found these lectures very interesting and very useful! Congratulations to the ability of communication of the teacher.

Summarised but enough to have good knowledge about Fungi, its recommended

very helpful thank you for this info , hope to continue and update

Really liking the microbio bacteria videos. Feel like the presentation of the info is well done and really easy to grasp in such a short amount of time.

This video is precise and concise, thanks a lot, I found this series to be incredibly helpful

Quick n essentials...thanx alot...????????see u in other lectures ....it is very nice that you back bone with firstaid

Extremely informative and engaging. Amazing lecturer! Thank you! You make concepts so clear, and provide real-life scenarios for the diseases caused by the microbes. Humourous in some places, which makes the content easy to remember.

It could be improved with more bacteria (ex: for Neisseria there's only Meningitidis and not Gonorrheae, that's is treating in the Sexual Transmitted Infections just as a clinical approach)

I like that professor tells very interesting and useful information. Helps to review.

Best class in protein synthesis inhibitors I have ever watched. Thank you!

The video lectures helped me organize the information I already knew and filled the gaps in between. I appreciated how Dr. Wilson was concise and straight to the point with his lectures.

I chose this because I am a fan of viruses and I want to invent a Medicine for all viruses and I loved it very much because I want to help mankind and learn, and this is a type that we must all talk about.

I have greatly enjoyed watching Dr. Shukle’s lectures. They are short but with tons of info that makes the subject so much easier to understand. It cleared up so many things for me. Thank you Dr. Shukle!

Really great videos. Extremely helpful, though on our curriculum we are required to know basic lab diagnosis of the common bacteria and identify their culture in lab practical exams it would have been helpful if that area had a section as well.

I really like the way the professor make things simple to understand with real-life example, thank you , I finally understood this disease !

The issues are almost complete and notes are abvious and are basic and pretty fluent lectures

Really clear explanation with real life example, thank you so much. I had trouble to learn the cycle of this parasite but thank to this professor I get it now and only after one lecture. Even for the prevalence in the world, it's easy for me to remember it now thanks to this lecture.

I think these videos are good enough for us to learn.

Clear explanation, most of the time very detailed and easy to understand

It's explained in a very understandable way and slow for non native speackers

I like Lecturio very much because the videos are simple, short, and hit the high notes. I got a A (first and only one to score a A) on my first exam in microbiology where the majority of the students got 60% and under.

?wesome lectures, everything I need to prepare for the exams and use in my clinical practice!

This lecture really helped me a lot, it’s so well explained and dynamic that makes it easier to understand. Thank you doctor.

The lecturer touched on all of the most important points with clarity and conciseness.

He is energetic and I like that very much about him.

It would be nice to have an extra chapter o add a lab identification for bacterias. Like techniques to identify them. Oxidase positive o catalase negative like so. Also is very useful in enterobactereceaa microorganisms to add the biochemistry scale o battery examples like TSI LIA MIO Citrate Urea. I’m from Chile and i am in formation to become a laboratory Medical technologist

absolutely wasting of time for whom needs to study for step 1

Excellent ! All the lectures of Dr. Sean Elliot are amazing ! A+++

The Best Antimicrobial Pharmacology ever seen. IT is explained so well. I love IT.

Faltan aspectos microbiologicos como factores de virulencia y patogenia, pruebas de laboratorio, y enfermedades que produce.

The professor's way of teaching precisely saying his clear and neat approach to the lectures is what makes them great.

Not a great virus review course for Usmle step one students

well most know that shigella destroys gis mucosa...but the pathophysiology is now clear...thanx lecturio

It is very audible, good sound system, analysed with pictures and really more defined

This set of lectures on Staph were very generalized and did not cover the other Staph bacteria commonly seen on STEP 1 (i.e. saprophyticus and epidermidis). This seems to be a common theme of not going deep enough to cover material necessary for STEP, yet advertising that you all cover enough material for STEP 1.

The material taught seemed to comprise of only 10% of what we need to know for USMLE. Various bacteria ranging from gram positive cocci all the way to mycobacteria were all missing. And even with the bacteria taught ( streptococci, staphyloccci , vibrio , e.coli , shigella, salmonella) lacked a tremendous amount of depth. Very disappointing that I paid for this. Hoping virology lectures will be better.

nothing could be better, I liked your way and simplicity with fully clear explanations.

it's very clear course with direct points and simple explanations.Also the notes and slides are well done.

Simple and easy to understand, he really likes the subject. I wish the videos were longer with more information. Maybe an advance lecture? Thank you!

Mr Racaniello presents all of the material very well and I believe that he is an excellent lecturer. However, there are many important types of bacteria missing from this course. Pseudomonas, Treponema Pallidum, zoonoses, Clostridium, Tetanus, Helicobacter Pylori, Neisseria, Bordetella, etc. USMLEs step 1 go into great detail regarding many of these bacteria that were omitted from this course.

So many sub topics are missing. Please add new lectures to cover those topics. Bacteriology portion is incomplete

yes, very good! Very rethorical and good lecture. I love lecturio

Nice one, well described, nice talker, I enjoyed a lot. Keep it up!

Me encanta, todo bien conciso, de manera muy explicada y digerible de combrender

nice course, almost complete and informative. Liked the practice and case studies very much. they make you better put things in a context. i would love to have more of them. Plus, would love to help out in finding a mnemonic and strategies memorizing relevant characteristics and specifications to drugs

very nice and efficient lectures, you have to write some notes to your book from this lectures!

I think that this course is a incredible tool for medical students. I belive that it's important the Microbiology for doctors and it's great that we have access at it's information

I would love to give a higher rating but many important pathogens are not covered

5/5 because of the simplified explanation of the human microbiome. I like the approach used because it sets the stage for acquiring important high yield information later into the subject.

enjoyed the lecture, I would love one on the legalities of pharm and the laws for prescribing

This actually was an amazing lecture. Made me understand a lot of issues around Gentamycin.

Great lecturer. Keeps the lecture interesting and easy to remember. Wish I had him as my professor.

Very nice lectures! Focuses on the need-to-know things that have clinical relevance.

that was a simple and accurate description i liked it very much

This course was informative and professional. I look forward to learning more!

Very calming, understandable, and professor knows what information is right to share

Assalam-o-Alikum! Sir your lectures are very informative and its my humble request kindly give us access to download these lectures because lots of time taken by lecture due to internet problem plz try to understand and give us access of downloading

All lectures are brief and to the point . The lecturer uses examples to help reinforce important points about the drugs. He uses humour to keep the lecture interesting and engaging. I would recommend this to everyone as their go -to pharmacology tutorial course.

A very good lecturer of Microbiology. Thank you and I am looking forward in learning more.

i feel that u r teaching better than other professors we as a student understanding better micro as step by step

I liked how strep was broken down between group A and group B but the video didn't mention the different types of strep in each group ie s. pyogenes. The quiz asked about catalases but didn't mention it in the video.

things made quite easy with interactive lectures and slides and tables

I'm a foreign medial MD internal medicine specialist and I came to us I just felt lost but when I find this tools my life just changed! I already suggest This to other physicians here in USA. I hope I can pass all the usmle steps I will let you know guys!

short and sweet concepts. nice tables. easy to understand. thank you.

Just want to say that this lecturer is gold. He speaks clearly, does not refer to items not present on the slide (thus confusing the learner), and excellent at teaching. Really enjoying all your lectures Dr. Shukle.

This guy is fantastic lecturer and the best on this platform, knows the subject matter, knows how to capture your attention throughout and also has a way of going over everything in a short summary. However, I would have appreciated if he becomes more test oriented. Thank you.

This guy is the best lecturer on this platform, knows the subject matter, knows how to capture your attention and also has a way of going over everything in a short summary

Dr. Shukle has a great tone and lays emphasis on what's considered high yield for exam. I like examination oriented lecturers who constantly open your eyes to those things that are frequently tested.

Like it very much. Will like it more if you can add more bacterias and viruses on the course!!!

Very good presentations, accurate and to the point lectures. Love to study with you!!!

The professor makes the subject matter interesting and understandable for the layperson.

Lectures very good. But i wish you had some themes like giardiasis, amebiasis and others.

very bad .. they dont have mycobacterium.. dont purchase the subscription .. these people have fooled us. they dont have anything on mycobacterium tuberculosis

I love how all these complicated defenitions and ininformation is explained in such a pedagogical way. Many thanks!

MBBS student cant get benefit from this lecture. The clear concept needed for a future Doctor about Microbiology.

he talks very clearly, coherent, easy to follow, i read only the free sections was so nice and clear.

I really enjoyed learning something that I wouldn't have enjoyed otherwise. Thanks a lot for such a great lecturer.

I studied the lectures for NBME Microbiology as a supplement to the other material. It was very helpful and I strongly recommend these lectures by Dr. Shukle.

I thoroughly enjoyed all the videos. Also by listening to these lectures, my uni lectures are making sense to me now. Thank you so much Dr Vincent. You have made my life so much easier now.

Sometimes the lecturer reads some information without explaining what is meant by it. If you can improve that I would be glad.

Doctor Racaniello gives us great explanations about the different topics of bacterial biology. One of the things that I appreciate the most from his lectures, is the appropiate speed and use of clear language which facilitates the understanding for foreign students such as myself.

It is well presented and informative. I like that it is concise and emphasizes on what we really need to know.

Amazing stuff but doesnt differ the exotoxins into the four forms of them.

I liked the lecture it gave me a brief idea of the concept

I think each lecture is great, but the contents are not enough for USMLE. More precisely, the contents of general principle parts are helpful, but those of detailed exposition parts should be improved to contain more information. For example, You need to provide us for more details about many types of bacteria. The number of kinds of bacteria addressed in this course is small. It's far from enough for USMLE step 1. The same same goes for viruses. The others are favorable.

Great teacher !! I was amazed with your way of teaching.. You made one of the most hard subjects look so easy thank you

Lecturio is one of the BEST online medical education website providing authentic resources for a FULL spectrum of medical specialties. The lecturers at Lecturo have full command on their subjects and make it very easy to understand even the difficult and complicated issues. Dr. Maqsood Ali MBBS, MRCGP, DTCD, FCCP

very brief and only touches the superficial parts of ssDNA genomes

Need area of study in ref to Family a nurse a Practitioner for state exam

the lecturer is very good in lecturing, i understand very well morethan in the class hall

Can you please consider including the doses and half life's of *all* the drugs

Very precise and concise, highly recommended to all my friends and colleagues

I had no background in microbiology and this lecture helped me a lot with closing the gap. Thank you

Dr Racaniello, is good. Easy to understand, good content. This course is hitting all topics in my med school course.

Very well done job. Dr. Vincent is excellent. If someone does not have a better understanding of basic and clinical microbiology is not his fault. He has done all his best to facilitate the concepts in a very clear manner so that everyone can understand. Good job Dr. Vincent.

Dr. Vincent Racantello is a wonderful facilitator. His teaching is very connected to the concepts of the topics. His explanations are very clear. He even takes time to recap when it is necessary so that the learner can stay on right task. I wish I had more available time to invest in his teaching. He really inspires me to push myself a little bit more. Thanks again

Dr. Racaniello is a very good professor. He takes all his time to ensure that his students understand the concepts of the topics. All his feedbacks and examples are very relevant.

He is a very good lecturer and great facilitator of microbiology.

hello Lecturio Im from Philippines Im so happy that I came to find this very knowledgeable site where I can learn sruffs related to my course which is Pharmacy.

He is a great professor. He takes all his time to explain the topics.

That's so great! The lecture is so simple to understand. Thanks PhD!

like it very much thank you Pravin Shukle for this course

I loved the lecture so much! But sir, isn't there something called as fifth generation cephalosporins? And please please pleaaaase add more questions to each chapter. Only 3 questions per chapter is not enough. Please consider this sir.

Very clear and concise material!!! easy to understand and remember with great association with the clinical part.Really helpful for everyone who didn't want to waste their time with boring teacher in the classroom.

great and well made, I'd like if you add some quiz even in this section!

Very well made, all the important thinghs to say are dealt.

Perfect, easy to follow and understand. I would be appreciated if there are more topics about treatment.

The clarity of the information being delivered is extremely satisfactory! I enjoyed watching this lecture.

Thorough, organized, not only important for exams but also very much applicable on daily basis in patient care.

Lecture was well organized and covered the appropriate level for this topic.

Very good teacher! Funny! Great job. I can spend all they long listening to him.

I like too much,plz make more high yelid questions with each topics,i appreciate it.

The lecturer is really good in explaining the concepts and has really great clarity. It feels so good to listen to him and understand the underlying pharmacological principles

This is in my opinion the perfect way of building up lectures: Starting out with introduction to all different groups. Followed by details in all groups and ending with questions, so that you are sure you can use the knowledge you have just gained.

This lecture was very organized by introduction and then going into detail with the most important fungi. Made it easy to approach and easy to jump back and forward in lecture if you had a part you wanted to see again

Very good course!!

covers everything essential, good overview, easy to follow, relevant info

much more questions needed for every video, more then few in the end of every thema

Crisp and clear presentation. Easy to follow. Well organized bullet points.
