    For whatever reason, I was really moved by this installment. As a long time sufferer of chronic depression, it was sad to hear about Paul Ehrlich. To be dedicated to a passion with such far reaching positive intentions, yet to be attacked in that way has got to be incredibly painful.

    This video helped me! Not only did my teacher recommend that we watch this video. I became interested in microbiology now! This video taught me a lot, and i am glad that my teacher recommended us to watch this video. Thanks a lot, Prof!

    The thought that those people, and the teams who worked with them, saved millions of lives boggles my mind. And not just that, the amount of needless suffering that's been avoided, the terror, the pain, to this day...

    Leuwonhoek got his micro lenses by breaking hot glass rods. Voila, tiny perfect glass spheres. People thought for a long time that he had impossible glass blowing skills. Just a natural discovery. Source - Gresham lecture by William Ayliffe, if memory serves.

    Sterilization and cleanliness are so associated with surgery that it's absurd to us how bad things were before we knew better. Maybe in 150 years people will think medicine today was just as absurd due to greater knowledge and technology.
