- Who Am I? -
I’m Vincent Racaniello, Earth’s Virology Professor, and I believe that education should be free.
I’m also a professor of virology at Columbia University in New York. I’ve been doing research on viruses since 1976, and teaching virology in classrooms and online since 1999. On this TH-cam channel I share videos of my lectures, podcasts, and more.
New videos are uploaded several times each week.

I love the pop up figure heads
I love to hear that 4 degrees c equals 29 f, and it is 21 c in Tacoma, maybe inside his house?
Ooh I’m excited for this one
Cold water washing+ heat-miser dryers - are one reason for the huge bedbug resurgence in the US. Probably lots of needless illness as well.
Interesting to hear about the PET disintegration
🤣🤣🤣I feel like Im playing
“scientist whack-a-mole”! 🤣🤣🤣great presentations! Great episode!
I am working with the PETase enzyme and I have a question: what prevents the enzyme from maintaining its activity for longer? I understand that MEHT levels influence
What is that lovely intro? What the music called
29f is 4c?.. Kyoto is in Korea?..
That's "flogging" a dead horse.
Listening to, learning and enjoying! 😊🎉 happy Chinese new year! Which actually isn’t just Chinese,🧧 I live right next-door to little Saigon in Southern California and they’re rockin right now and actually Vietnam and China been at war for maybe 1000 years. That’s one reason why we lost in Vietnam the non-declared war that was actually called the Police Action. Just a sidenote cause I love history and I love learning and that’s why I listen!
