BIO 101 – General Biology I – Video – Dr. Paul Fitzgerald

Biology is a diverse subject with many sub-disciplines – genetics, ecology, zoology, population biology, molecular biology, and many, many more. Biology 101, together with the companion course Biology 102, is designed to provide you with the basic foundations that all of these sub-disciplines build upon. In Dr. Paul Fitzgerald’s video lectures, students will explore the fundamental characteristics of living matter from the molecular level to the ecological community in which organisms live. In short, this course is a college-level introduction to matter, energy, form, and function in living systems. Read More

The EMJClub Podcast

An evidence-based emergency medicine podcast. The Washington University Emergency Medicine Journal Club podcast provides an excellent way to keep up with the medical literature, improve patient care, and increase understanding of evidence-based medicine. Each month we ask a clinical or operational question pertinent to the practice of emergency medicine. We then discuss the four articles most relevant to that question in an attempt to determine the most evidence-based approach to patient care. Read More
