This video is ridiculously good. It's science explained through storytelling filled with heart. As a microbiology major, watching this gave me the inspiration to learn and explore new aspects that nature has to offer for scientific research. To look beyond what's already known and to think bigger. I'm so glad I found this channel through the bonsai video - so so good. Beautifully written well done. I hope more and more subscribers come your way
wow, you're so kind! Thanks so much and I'll definitely keep going! I'm glad you were able to appreciate it too! I think it's a pretty dense video, maybe a little too confusing for the general public. Good luck in your studies
I highly recommend Kary Mullis’ biography. It is quite short but fascinating. I read it during my first year of studying chemistry at university. As a bit of a social outcast, I felt very isolated from my peers in classes, and when attempting to mimic behavior to fit in (yes I’m autistic, apparently). Kary really resounded with me as being someone who was unabashedly open to sharing both his genius and insanity. He wasn’t a perfect person by far, but he was genuine in his thoughts with no apology or care (not always a good thing in excess, but still something I wish I saw more). Had he been born a century prior, I genuinely think he would be revered among the likes of Einstein and Tesla. The corporatism and corruption of science buried this man. Even when earnestly asking about him to my professors recently when using PCR testing in lab, most laugh about him and act as though he was crazy… I guess you could argue he was, but “crazy” is often a common descriptor among those who are able to produce an idea this revolutionary.
I've read his book "Dancing Naked in the Mind Field. Great book. He was definitely an interesting character. Too bad he's not still with us. I think they did away with him.
I was in a bioengineering lab before, and it was so good to see things in a different way, it is great that you have done so much work on explaining the great PCR. shout out to backpacking biologist
Mullis made this statement in a video that is about 25 years old. PCR tests did not exist at that time. The tests use PCR, but they are a separate method. Today they are everyday biochemistry. Since viruses contain nucleic acids, they can of course be detected by PCR based Tests. His statement is completely outdated.
@@vdubs4life1964 Maybe no one asked him anymore later? PCR, his brainstorm under LSD, won him the Nobel Prize, but unlike other laureates, he was no longer taken scientifically seriously because of his curious views later.
I have learned about pcr in my pharmacy school but never seems this interesting it's more like exploring around the way you went through every step it's embedded deep into roots of my brain which I'll never gonna forget in my life this how exactly teaching should be🖤
@@TheBackpackingBiologist you are absolutely pushing false information and you know it. You have no real facts. No real peer reviews and knowing that NO 'virus' has been ever isolated. You are parroting arbitrary and false information.
Another great video! The quality of content you're producing is far, far above what most channels your size are at. Keep up the good work, I hope to see your audience growing in the future!!
Fascinating! These explanations are so clear. Love what you're doing production-wise too. Using magnets, interviewing friends in the field, filming on-site? It's top notch, dude. 🤓🤠
Ok, I appreciate anything keeping Kary Mullis in the zeitgeist. While still shocked you didn't insist on his main fights. What about his accusations directed on Fauci and his gang.
Thanks! I wanted my video to focus on the science, not on the controversy. Ideally this video would be played for classrooms, so cutting the fat was key, and to me, all that junk was fat.
You are a solid teacher. I really understand this concept! Edit: just noticed you are a tiny channel. I am excited to be an early subscriber to this empire you've started!
Thanks again for all that you’re creating- you’re a pedagogue extraordinaire- love how you “clap back” primary research and its funding to protecting our environment and endangered species! Brilliant! Eloquent erudite and enchanting as always
The number cycles you run PCR is the key. Kary said only run it 20 cycles maybe up to 25 but don't use to determine anything, only for supporting other investigations. Since March 2020 PCR was used to determine COVID-19 by running it 37 cycles. It is totally wrong and Kary warned about it.
In the almost 30-year-old video clip, Karry Mullis was unable to comment on PCR tests, as they did not even exist at the time. He "only" invented PCR, he had nothing to do with the later tests. People simply don't understand that PCR (as a pure copying machine for DNA) and PCR tests are completely different things.
Now the question is how a virus is isolated? Once we could purified a virus then we could be certain tha a particular genome correspond to a particular virus.
A slightly misleading title. I thought there would be more about LSD’s effects on the brain. It was a very informative video, but I did hope to learn about LSD on the brain..
sure but somehow the inventor him self Kary Mullis disagrees on how it is used died a few days before the "pandemic" and you totally spiked to talk about it...somehow
I hope that one day I get to analyze your digital output, I would tell you that you have cancer. DNA data is not regulated. I can give you any call I want to plus, it can easily be manipulated just like PCR.

@@pookiecatblue I wondered the same thing. The timing of his death was just… very odd.
@@rosalina2773 He challenged Fauci and was not someone they could just ignore.
He conveniently “died” TOO SOON. Would it have been used as it is now if he had been alive?

I'm blown away by how well made this is, I love all the interviews and all the great effort you give this.
Hey! Thanks :) I really appreciate it and I’m glad you liked it!
Kary said it himself that PCR isn't designed to detect viruses. And its not a test.
Mullis made this statement in a video that is about 25 years old. PCR tests did not exist at that time. The tests use PCR, but they are a separate method. Today they are everyday biochemistry. Since viruses contain nucleic acids, they can of course be detected by PCR based Tests. His statement is completely outdated.
@@h.gonyaulax2190 but he died in 2019 and he never retracted what he said in that interview 25 years ago.
@@vdubs4life1964 Maybe no one asked him anymore later? PCR, his brainstorm under LSD, won him the Nobel Prize, but unlike other laureates, he was no longer taken scientifically seriously because of his curious views later.
@@vdubs4life1964 correct. He also stated that it can detect everything that you would look for. I'm paraphrasing of course. Put pretty much on point.
@@vdubs4life1964 and he also knew that the hiv/aids "virus" was a scam.

Haha thanks! I appreciate it :)
Super cool and informative video!
I learned a lot about PCR, this was a really informative video. You put a lot of time and effort into these videos, good job
Thanks a lot dude, I’m glad you liked it!
This video is so informative about something I didn't know I didn't know anything about, and is such high quality - really impressive.
Great job, keep it going!
Thanks! Will do!

Love your vidoes so much man, the love and care you put tinto them really shines through ^_^
this is a real "video explanation of something" should be, love it. thanks. love you
haha thank you!
This is a lovely video! Keep it up fam!
Thank you!
Wow learned something new! PCR ftw! Looking forward to more backpacking vids 🙏
Thanks! Next one is a backpacking video in the Channel Islands off the coast of California :). Take care!
I'm an italian teacher, thank you so much for this amazing video, it will be very helpfull for my high school students!
Glad it was helpful!
Great message, thank you
Thanks for watching, and I’m glad you liked it!
As a beginning biology student I can say that your channel is exactly what I was missing xD. Keep up the great work!
Thanks so much! Good luck with school!

I am here for the first time and your channel blew my mind.
I'm glad you found it! Thanks for watching :)
PCR test can say anyone has Covid at any time
Loved the video :)
thanks Danny! :)
Kary Mullis was my second cousin, his father "Banks" was a great man as well. I think he got his rebellious ways from his great grandmother.
Wow, that's super cool!
Very nice video! Good job 👍🏼
Thank you!
Lol, gravity.... Still just a theory.
Just found your channel and subscribed. You make fantastic videos!:)
Thank you for subbing and watching! Glad you liked it :)
Excellent job!

Well done.
Thank you!
You have great videos very informative thank you soo mucg
Glad you like them! Cheers!
This needs more views
Thanks! I feel the same way 😂
so interesting!!
Thanks for the video 🎉 never stop researching 😊
the “dead” actor was my favorite part of the video for sure😌
Get that woman an Oscar
Thermophiles love watching The Backpacking Biologist🔥🔥🔥
Yeee! Thanks Chris! You still got the same number?
@@TheBackpackingBiologist I think so? I'll send it to you on FB

Amazing!

Great video my g
Thanks Kasper! ❤️❤️
After a second reload of this link all the negative comments and discussions disappeared and only positive with 1 answer appear. Very PCR !!!!
What do you mean? Every comment is still here, nothing has been deleted
great vid
Thank you!
another great video
Thanks! :)

How has this only had 4.4k views?????
Thank you! Hopefully it’ll get more in the future :)
nice video thanks if you make similar videos about how biological inventions happened it can be very nice.
So he drove while high on LSD?
I guess genius and crazy are close together 😈😅
Often times one in the same 😅
What is the death of him anything peculiar?
He passed away with pneumonia, sadly in August 2019.
Can you grow me new teeth? Lol
What DNA problem was there? Science thinks they have to rewrite DNA?
Resident Evil?
Wait so he was driving on lsd 😂 legend
A slightly misleading title. I thought there would be more about LSD’s effects on the brain. It was a very informative video, but I did hope to learn about LSD on the brain..
Thanks for the feedback! I've been trying different titles and thumbnails, I'll give it another go! cheers!
sure but somehow the inventor him self Kary Mullis disagrees on how it is used died a few days before the "pandemic" and you totally spiked to talk about it...somehow
Amazing science, a true scientist
Lol.the pcr test is a scam. He said it himself and then they killed him off
Yep. I thought the same thing.
Lies
You can never see the reaction and process happening in real time. You only can imagine it happening.
So is this basically cloning?
In a way, yes!
I hope that one day I get to analyze your digital output, I would tell you that you have cancer. DNA data is not regulated. I can give you any call I want to plus, it can easily be manipulated just like PCR.
Analyze my digital output? You better me out to dinner first! 🥵
Impressive. You obviously put a lot of time into this video. Thank you for new information.
Thank for noticing and leaving the kind comment!

No way, that's so cool!
