Welcome to Learning Biology with Dr. Vanessa!

This is Video 2 in my Microbiology Series, where we build directly on the concepts introduced in the first video and begin exploring the microbial building blocks that make life possible at the cellular level.

In this lesson, we focus on the basic structural and chemical components that make up microbial cells, with special attention to bacteria, since they are the microbes you’ll encounter most often in healthcare and clinical settings. Understanding these building blocks is essential for making sense of antibiotics, infections, diagnostics, and disease processes later in the course.

Student notes to follow along can be found here:

🧬 In this video, you’ll learn:

What “microbial building blocks” are and why they matter
The basic components shared by most microbial cells
How microbial cells differ from human (eukaryotic) cells
Why these structural differences are medically and clinically important
How microbial structure relates to survival, growth, and treatment strategies

This series is structured to make complex microbiology concepts clear, approachable, and clinically relevant, without oversimplifying the science. If microbiology has ever felt overwhelming, you’re in the right place.
