Socially Distant Microbiology
Socially Distant Microbiology is a collection of recorded lectures for an undergraduate microbiology course. All videos were created during the COVID-19 pandemic in spring of 2020 in response to a quick pivot to remote learning at my institution. The videos may not be perfect, but I hope you find them helpful and informative.
