Week 1 Introduction (MDSC 2203)

yes i like too much like its so good and so clear

please use some pointers to show that part in the image. it will be easy for us to recognise it easily and it will be of great help. thank you

honestly, it almost looks like it was explained in the most unclear way I ever hear. on&off centers, no explanation on the laters of the retina, where did the signal send further by bipolar cells and maybe a little bit on the pathway could be nice probably a little bit more thinking need to be done here in order to makes it easier to understand

Se requiere mas infromación, incluyendo aquellas paralisis qu ese pueden dar por un tumor.

Very detailed inormation, helps to get good understanding, thank You!

Ich finde die Videos sehr didaktisch. Das Material ist auf einem hervorragenden Niveau.

le falta un poco más de información, pero como algo general está bien.

covered the nerve complete and goes great with the anatomy lectures

covered very well contains the information needed for step in med school

covered cn three concisely and goes perfectly with anatomy videos

Great job covering the cranial nerve here and it goes well with the visual pathway video

I appreciate the fact they try to explain the processes in very engaging way, but i think it would be even better to use customized stock video of the development of the nervous system. I had to go watch one on youtube

Thank you Doctor Wilson for your simple and understandable lecture.

the way how the professor explain the topic is very easy to learn

Great Lecture! Thanks Doctor Canby. I was finally able to understand how this cranial nerve works.

An excellent course and therefore I gave the highest possible rating. I liked absolutely everything. Thanks for your work! I am now preparing for USMLE step 1 and I am at the stage of repetition of anatomy and embryology.

Great summarized information in neurophysiology! Very well taught and very professional!

the lecture is good but for future can you include a slightly more advanced serioes that includes regiratory mediatory that can lead to congenital defects?

Excellent speaker. He makes very difficult content manageable by having nice explanations at a good, slow pace.

Very good explanation, to understand from beginning!!! I was really afraid about Histology, but Dr. Meyer's explanation gave me confidence and helped me to build a solid foundation, in order to learn more info later on. Thank you, Dr. Meyer!!! You are one of my favourite lecturer! P.S. Since I've studied integrating in my study plan Lecturio"s lectures by Dr. Meyer, my grades at Histology are significally improved!

Professor Kevin make it enjoyable course; It helped not only in remembering many info that I forgot in the class, but also I did learn many new valuable information. The fact that the explanation provided by Dr. Kevin is so easy to understand and memorize, make this course very interesting.

Clear and simple. Explained in good sequence. Thank very You.

Simple and consice lectures. Please Consider more clinical co relation.

Very informative, and helped me with my studies. Has a lot of information I needed.

Really great lectures, images, and humor! Love Lecturio! Thank you!

Actually embryology is tough and it involves a lot of imagination if we study it on our own it is difficult to visualise but Sir makes the classes very interesting less of a burden and because of the classes I never had difficulty in this zone and this was the subject I didn’t had to look behind to review because once taught by Sir it remains forever . My favourite teacher

I haven’t seen such an amazing teacher in my life My most favourite teacher

Awesome review , covering all the important concepts with clear explanation

Thank You! Very helpful and useful. Simplified way of explaining a complicated topic

Vey well summarized and complete. I was having difficulties to learn it, but with the Lecturio’s videos I understood it the first time.

Yes, hormones and their transduction signals are important like a cardiac conduction system starting form the Sino-atrial node (SA) finishing in the Purkinjie fibres . I mean Hormones and signal transduction are really well explained by a doctor doctor Kevin Ahern . He has been presenting the most complicated part of the medicine course so well. In terms of pregnant patient for example who does need an extra attention and management as they go though various hormonal changes while caring out pregnancy and delivery tasks. I cant thank enough for his contribution . I much appreciated.

Hi Lecturio Team, Yes, I like it a lot neurophysiology by doctor Thad Wilson. Great presentation and explanation. In my view, the neurophysiology is one of the vital key of the medicine by knowing it and combining knowledge and skills with anatomy, pathophysiology and surgery you could figure out pathology in terms of when you facing patients with traumatic injury . In contrast when you seeing infected patient with contagious viruses, bacteria and fungi and so on, of course you need to immediately think about combining knowledge and skills of microbiology, pathophysiology and pharmacology and biochemistry. Yes, all courses are given so well presented. Yes . I certainly enjoyed it Lecturio as it has all components of courses which are important for every doctor who wants to excel their skills. Many thanks indeed for the course organizers, Showing on cadaver will be even better to get precise knowledge and skills.

aa a aa aa aaava aaav aaa aaa a s s s

really good app to study , you can download the lectures and study anywhere anytime

On point, efficient and easy to comprehend. Fantastic presentation by the professor. My experience comes from an african medical school with professors who spend 2 hours explaining major concepts that I end up spending extra time trying to understand. For example, the action potential video explained the concept for me in less than 10 minutes in comparison to the 1 hour irl lecture that led me nowhere.

Made it simple to understand and a lot more fun to learn!!!

Thank you so much This video helped me so much en my sesions of study

neuro physiology if u mean diabetic coma,it is good I have gone thr the lecture

Thank you Dr. Ahern for this very comprehensive lecture. Going through the biochem book makes this topic very complicated. It is amazing how you can simplify this topic to get to the point and what we actually need to understand.

The pathways of the nerve should be discussed, intracranial and extracranial.

Oh yes indeed Greatly given 12 CN a I thoroughly enjoyed it Please don’t surprise if I revise I must make sure my pronunciation is correct While I am studying of course spelling is brilliant I try to memorise it as as a foreign graduate these courses extremely helpful!!! Many thanks for your great design!!

very good diagrams, would have liked to see an even deeper dive into ciliary muscle in relation on zonule fibers and how they are inverse to each other,

like it, though I didn't have a pre idea of neurophysiology but i found it realy easy to understand. I like the way of delivering the important messages by the professor; i.e changing his tone of voice, making it louder or... onething that I felt, was missing was Using a pointer, which I didn't know why he was not using.

Love lecturing videos! I find them very helpful as they cover the information of each topic in basic terms. I love that you can speed them up, pause them, and rewatch them for your convenience. The post video quizzes also help me stay engaged with the content I’m learning. I have noticed my grades improving after watching lecturing videos before my exams.

he is just excellent shame, I can't recommend anybody else except him.

explaining slow and efficiently with great questions in the end

I do like it very much its straight forward . He has shown all the main points . Many thanks indeed.

elegí ésta calificación por que explicó de manera clara y sensilla el tema, ahora puedo profundizar mas el tema leyendo un libro. Me encantó la conferencia. Sí recomendaría este video a todos mis compañeros de clase

Elegí esta calificación porque explicó de forma sensilla de entener y recordar lo básico del desarrollo y patologias de los arcos faríngeos, ahora queda ib¿vestigar más sobre dicha información. Me gustó que pone la variedad y cantidad de imagenes que proyecta justo en el momento exacto que explica, eso hace más entendible la conferencia. Recomendaría este vídeos a mis compañeros de facultad.

Histology explained really well. At each step letting us know what is going to be explained is really good.

good video really lked it the language was qut e easy to understand

It's An Good Overview And Histological Studies Of Ganglion.,But There is Need to Tell Stains Name

The Proffessor Peter Ward is the best for embryo. I really enjoy and learn of this lecture

Dr. Meyer is a great teacher, a lot from my experience with his videos regarding the introduction to the mammalian cell however, this video definitely left a lot to be discerned and was not very informative. Required me to do a lot of googling to make sense of much of these... Hard to follow and disappointing.

I like the picture and descriptions. It could be a little more in depth but overall really good.

I liked the professor very much. He's really brilliant and clear. He doesn't speak too quickly so it's easy to understand everything. I appreciated that eveytihing is explained starting from the plates which are very important in this course.

Didn’t go into very broad details. Very superficial. Would love if there were more microscope tissues.

Dr. Meyer is great! His lectures help me so much in preparing for class and understanding. I have really struggled with the eye, so this was a life-saver.

I truly appreciate Dr. Ward's efforts on making these lectures, guiding me through development of multi organ systems. Highly recommended!

it covers most of the embryology of nervous system. I think it will be really perfect if there are more details on the development of brain itself, specifically cerebellum and midbrain. Another thing to be noted, I cant find the development of spinal cord and it is a part of nervous system. In the end, thank you d.Ward for those really amazing lectures

Good clinical relevance and good explanation of their course and source. Very complete and short.

Great easy to digest lectures that provide highly relevant understanding of each topic. Totally worth it!

EXCELENTE. Muy bien explicado, desde principales datos de anatomía, hasta las meninges se entendió muy bien.

Very very easy and limpid discussion for not only medical students but also for all biological faculty students. Thank you dear sir, Thad Wilson, PhD

again, great professor, good course. I regret that the downloadable slides are not very dense, so that I can not use the slides to study for this course

I have nothing to say but that I like watching and learning from this course

super tough course. I'll definitely come back to it and view it again. These videos are a little bit fast paced for me

I had a course in neurophysiology a few years ago. This course in neurophysiology is an excellent reminder, and it is not as deep as the course I had (good thing).

it was great.the pacing of the lecturer was okay it gives me time to imagine the structures since this is anatomy (pure memorization).Thank you

V less details as compared to the need of entrance exam

I never enjoyed a lecture about embriology like this before. love it!

Best diagram and explanation ever received. None of my teachers could explain so clear this concept. Thanks Dr. Meyer

Excellent clear presentation and distillation of essential principles and details in neurophysiology of multiple highly complex systems.

I love this app but wish I can watch the video from one to the next without stopping for the quizzes then take the quiz at the end of the topic being reviewed.

good explanation of the components in the facial nerve. Thanks

Here is a quote from which describes Lecturio: "In order to take on this challenge, Lecturio created a high-quality digital medical education resource, which is affordable, adaptive, and personalized. We designed our platform with the needs of learners and faculty in mind, combined with the latest state-of-the-art learning technology and comprehensive monitoring and assessment features." The lecturer keeps saying that he is going to have the "anatomists" explain the structure in detail...so why are we wasting our money looking at this. I paid for a subscription to this site for "state-of-the-art learning technology." If a customer clicks on the video to see a presentation on the general structure of the eye, they shouldn't have to waste their time watching a PowerPoint with no pictures of the eye. It is an insult for customers to have this guy put up this type of presentation. My textbooks have better supplemental material .

This is what you read on Lecturio's site: "In order to take on this challenge, Lecturio created a high-quality digital medical education resource, which is affordable, adaptive, and personalized. We designed our platform with the needs of learners and faculty in mind, combined with the latest state-of-the-art learning technology and comprehensive monitoring and assessment features." STATE OF THE ART??? These are PowerPoint slides!!! The guy is talking about different structures and you have to pause the video to find what he is trying to reference! Get a pointer. Use an arrow. Show the viewer the exact location you want to emphasize. If I turned this type of presentation in for a grade, I would get it returned. Kahn Academy, Ken Hub...this is as low tech as you can get. I expected so much more. You are supposed to save us time. I hate writing this but other people have to know that this lecturer's delivery - I might as well get a text book out and read it to myself.

Love the professor and absolutely love the way these lectures are taught. Comprehensive and easy to understand

Carlo Raj is so good at explaining and keeping you alert and focused. He asks questions and is very funny! I learned a lot about the things that didn't stick in my normal classes. Super good course!!

Prof. Well done sir, you've done a great job, I'll keep watching your videos

I think it could have been better. I think that was too basic

I liked the naurophysiology course very much. Cant wait to see the results of my test

Personally, I enjoyed the entire Histology review a lot, and would like to take this opportunity to thank Prof. G. Meyer for these lectures. All the best, Liliana B.

great, but first watch the previous videos! made the difficult matter seem a lot easier

Short, clear, specific, connected with cases, and speed of information is adequate.

This series of lectures about the ear really need to be addressed, they make no sense, if you don't already have a complex knowledge of the ear. Once you have that this I guess is a good way to review, but then why am I paying for this for 2 years? If this is how it is supposed to be lecturio should be advertised as step prep company only, not as a supplement to lectures. Disappointed in the ear and hearing series of lectures.

I've watched this video 3 times and can not follow it. I expect better from this company.

We more details. For example , the pathway of each nerve, The various branches and many more.

no explanation in this all cn videos plzz elaborate olzz

its a simple and very fast review about the cranial nerves

The topics were categorized and explained well with good examples

The topics were explained quite good and therefore are very helpful in terms of getting a good idea of the structures. However, it could have been more detailed and more questions should have been and the end of each video. Nevertheless, the lecture was very helpful and it is definitely not the last one I will attend????????

Very helpful in conjunction with my textbook readings; the drawings really help with solidifying what's being discussed by giving me something to visually refer to in my mind. Peter is also kawaii and you can tell he's really genuinely passionate about this topic, which made me enjoy watching these in my studies even more. (? ?•???•? ?) Thanks for all the effort.

I need more in depths information - maybe I’m not familiar with lectures

Good enough to concisely make the key points stands out.

I am able to write my exams only listening to your videos. And your Qbank is very very useful for me...

Yes Informative, but to short at times and not many anatomical details in my opinion To improve: More visuals from cranial fossa And more details about the anatomy But I enjoyed the clinical info.

I love the lectures. The only question I ask is that at the end of the reading lectures the questions of them I don’t know what the answers are. Is there a link for them? Is there more questions of each topic?

Awesome well done. Highly recommend it lecture was clear and easy to understand

I have taken biochem as an undergrad, grad. and post grad and I've never had anyone explain things as clearly. Dr. Ahern is one of the best teachers I've ever encountered. Thank you!

It`s almost nothing in this lecture. We need some raports and traiects of the nerves.

No explica la anatomia de este nervio, solo estan consideraciones clinicas

He explained thoroughly and I was able to understand without having to use the lecture. I really like the quizzes that are given. wish the quiz had more questions though

The video helped me understanding this topic with visual representation

Content of the lectures were useful especially when breaking down the components of each nerve. However, much of the lectures consisted of reading from slides which is entirely pointless as i can do that myself. It would also have been handy to include clinical testing techniques for each nerve as these will be important tests for us as doctors

Tone, delivery, ease of comprehension for complex material - perfect. Thank you

Nucleus must be introduced and explain the complete course of the nerve .

gives u ability to recognize tissues and have better understanding of materials but could be better if contained a bit more details and makes it more suitable for review materials in no time.

I personally didn't found these lectures much informative, the speed of the professor is extremely slow plus the slides provided in it has more than 55 pages lot of times for a single lecture instead of compiling it in a good way. Must work with the slides provided in the download items. The lecture would be useful if it would have engaged the whole thing clinically like which le forte fracture will be associated with rhinorrhea, etc.

Thank you sir for keeping it simple and easy to understand!

Was very clear just speak very quickly, then I have to repeat the lesson to understand complete anyway its not important, I would like just when speaking about the oncogenes give some examples about the food that causes

Just AMAZING!!!! Thank you Dr Peter for making this lecture so easy. This made me understand more rather than mugging up the derivatives.

Muy bueno, pausado. Buen resumen, ademas evaluación continua del aprendizaje.

Excellent lecture and the way sir explains is very impressive.

Clearly explanations, every piece of knowledge that prof. Ahem shares with listeners is facilely absorbed and stays in the mind.

I really like the making of the content of the lecture so short and placing only the most important facts However, I feel that it would increase the understanding if an animation would be involved

Good presentation, very accurately illustrsatrd and useful for all medical and theraptic ppurpose

concise and straight to the point,exactly what I was looking for

Image quality is a little issue here otherwise all fine and lectures are great

informative course, to the point, easy to follow and understand, quiz questions are interesting

Need to go into much more details ! Way too generalustic, where are the roots, ganglions, names of branches???

explained well - its good for quick review I found it very helpful

great job, thank you for the details! if there are updates, it is much appreciated

Great explanation, easy to follow. It helped me a lot to understand how hearing works.

falta detallar el origen aparente, el origen real, mas detalles de los nucleos donde se encuentra

Excellent synthesis about cranial nerves and the most important clinical correlations

Great review of the 12 cranial nerves. Presented the material in a much more organized fashion than any of my medical school lectures did.

Great course and simplified embryology. Made studying and tying the material together so much easier.

Great lecture with in depth knowledge! Easy to understand and follow the lecture

This was a nice, comprehensive summary of main points in vision with an appropriate amount of detail. The posted response from Dr. Wilson clarifying the role of bipolar cells is much appreciated too

Thank you, dr. Wilson! Your lecture here is very much appreciated. You made it clear the important facts and process of synapses and neurons.

prof Ahern is wonderful and funny! enjoyed all his lectures

excellent presentation and clarification of both structures and function of the Nervous system. Thank you.

Lecturio should open their own medical school in the Caribbean and people could actually learn down there ! keep it up !

They are great but it would be better if explained some of the cellular development behaviors involved

I've been interested in cyborg technology since first learning about it in the mid-1970's when I was a little kid. In 1988 when I began at the University of Washington I wanted to study remote-controlled people, but they didn't offer any courses in that field, although 25 years later the school published their EEG brain-to-brain interface that lets one person control the motions of another. In February 1997 while successfully debating cloning legislation with the Department of Defense, I was ordered to stand down when trying to discuss brain implants, but eventually in 2005 my paper was credited as the basis for the Wikipedia article on the subject, and on 2 April 2013, the 17th anniversary of my first sworn statement to the Seattle FBI detailing organized crimes against children at a media giant, President Obama announced funding for the BRAIN Initiative. Even Jesus said go help out at the vineyard if you want to build heaven, and folks grumbled because they just assumed it already existed as if by magic.

Hello Dr. Ahern. Your lectures were phenomenal, but for several of the lectures the slides did not correspond with your lecture (they were of totally different topics) or they changed midway into into unrelated biochemistry topics. It may be best to review them and adjust the errors. However, your presentation was so so good that I was easily able to follow your lectures with the downloaded lecture slides.

He sounds so bored, which makes it hard to keep focused. Also some of the slides aren't readable

I have watched the lecture series on the Abdominal wall and Thoracic viscera conducted by professor Craig, and he was more interactive and seemed to have greater Knowledge in those parts. This lecture is way too general and lacks many important info.

It is very superficial. He just repeats whatever appeared on the slides. Additionally, the Doctor makes the lecture very boring.

Seems a little bit robotic... is not a natural lecture... is too obvious the prompter reading

Good good good good good good good good good good

Great lecturer very knowledgeable of subject matter at an admirable pace. Needed this in depth type of lecture in med school because signal transduction in med-school was highly schematic . Good job

Short and to the point, good professor, and good test prep questions

Prof Kevin Ahern makes even a complex signaling process easy to understand and the association with day to day events. I have loved his other lectures too. I literally used to hate biochemistry but now I’m enjoying it and that is why I have given his lectures 5 stars

This lecture helped clearing a lot of questions in my mind. Very well delivered. Thank you

Very nice, short and high lead video , I liked it a lot

even after the update, on and off center in not clear

???????????????????????? you guys made my test today easier, i had no struggle at all. It was an oral test, i made it short and sweet thanks to you

Way too general, you need to go into more details and explain more

De bästa lektionerna inom patologi , stärkt rekommenderas. Han beskriver med noggrannhet och detalj. Toppen Hälsningar Furas

The lectures are nice, simple & very well explained. I would definitely recommend this course to my friends!

the lectures is shallow; i think that more details are needed. it is ineffectual for the level required from the biochemestry course of the Med University of Florence. cordially gioia

Unfortunately, the lecturer for the anatomy module has disappointed me. Whereas the lecturers in all other modules appear to be amazing, this lecturer speaks way too slow and with a boring tone. I have to listen to the lectures in 1.5x..

Thank you for the series of lectures, I really liked them, simple and well explained.

I've never heard someone explain pKa and drug mechanism so simply before.

Great lectures, i´m satisfied with your contents. Doctor Wilson is always surprising us with his explanations.

clear and concise in explanation; content well-organized and presented in a way that is easy to absorb

thank you doctor Craig for this video it's very helpful i hope you make anther one about cranial nerves specially 5th and 7th

The Lecture is very good. However the image does not clearly highlight the foramen. There appears to be an overlap of Foramen Lacerum with the Internal acoustic meatus.

Sometime the lecturer comes through clinical signs of patients with particular diseases and doesn't explain that sign, just introducs it to that disease. We need to know how that sign looks like when we encouter a patient so that we know how to deal with him.

I find verything related to the brain and nerves to be very difficult to understand, but Dr. Canby makes it easy to get and this makes the whole learning process far more enjoyable. I don't know if it's just me but when I really like the lessons and the teacher, its much easier for me to pay attention and keep on listening.

great leacture by prof.Thad great work by him for the development of concepts of phisiology.

Great Lecture! Very knowledgeable professor and nice visuals. Thank You!

Very comprehensible lectures! Thank you so much! Now I know the cranial nerves!

Consider adding more information and content to the video especially in the clinical section

If I needed someone to read off the slides for me I'd just go back to my actual med school professor

Concise and easy to understand as always! The trochlear nerve only innervates the superior oblique muscle, but Dr Canby's diagrams are excellent - far better than what we use in lectures! I'm a happy student!

Errmmm I like his beard. It is very hairy, like me!

Dear Prof Canby, Thank you for taking the time to create this resource. I did enjoy it and I found it easy to follow. During the first few lectures, I was hoping for more information on some of the muscles which were involved, and towards the end of the course, you included pictures of the muscles with their attachments which were very helpful. Thank you for including the clinical considerations too. I needed to search some information myself, such as the meaning of general somatic / visceral afferents / efferents, online. I had not studied this before. You began clarifying the role of these towards the end of the course, e.g. general somatic efferent has motor control. This was helpful in consolidating the meaning these terms. A bit more information in the beginning may have been helpful. I look forward to viewing more of your lectures. Best wishes, Hudanur

I enjoyed this lecture and it is very clear and easy to understand with this good instructor.

Explanation is good but not so detailed. I think it's better to explain more and go deeper on details. Subscribe to this website. Worth it Some parts are good some are not. But in total it's great. Thank you

it was perfect and describe a part of endocrine system very well.

Great review for neurophysiology. Simplifies key elements with clear explanations

Lecturer is great and thorough, I like that he takes space so that you can note something down etc.

I really do enjoy the way the app is constructed and the bookmatcher feature is absolutely amazing. This app has allowed me to regain control of information I had learned previously and order it in the manner it requires for understanding and ultimately, utilisation. Every medical student could benefit immediately by using this app.

Thank you Dr. Kevin Ahern!!! Sometimes you speak so fast, but these time was perfect :)

I choosed this rating because it explains the topic very well, and I also like the clarification of the functions of a nerve.

The information is sound but he's boring, He does not make the material interesting. I find it hard to pay attention or not fall asleep during his lectures and therefore i do not do well with the quizzes.

Information is too general and More review questions would be nice

the lecture was way to short. The information was very general. Please make the lectures more detailed and more interactive..maybe actual drawings being drawn as the lecturer is explaining. Also to specify on the detailed part which i mentioned, it would be much better if he explained each neurotransmitter.

The contents are very good, I wish I can share with my student easier.

I enjoyed this presentation quite a bit. I feel like the information will be well remembered thanks to the excellent delivery.
