Biochemistry content request

It is always good to suggest new course ideas. I believe it would help those who view this if you can compile a list of specific topics and skills you would like covered in future videos. This way, we (the community) can more easily advocate for content, some of which may be easier to integrate into existing courses.

Cyrus,

Biochemistry is a pretty well accepted course in itself. Most universities offer a specific course on biochemistry. I've been waiting a long time for this topic as well. I'll be done with chemistry probably around May and then I plan on watching the videos on O-Chem, but I was planning on simply reading the McGraw Hill Biochem book : https://www.mhprofessional.com/9780071825375-usa-harpers-illustrated-biochemistry-30th-edition if Khan couldn't get something up.

Hi Darren,

That sounds like a good plan. However, I believe I was unclear about what I was referring to in my previous comment. Textbooks, though certainly a solid resource and very informative, can be rather laborious to read (that's one reason I like using Khan Academy as an additional resource). I wanted to recommend that you think of a course structure or important list of concepts you wish to see an emphasis on. This specificity can help move the request along and stimulate ideas for creating a strong and effective Biochemistry course for everyone to grow and learn from.

Hopefully, this was more clear. Good luck with your future endeavors; your resolve is admirable.
