Immunomodulators Part 1: Immunosuppressants
We've already begun examining some immunomodulating drugs, like the glucocorticoids, so let's zoom out for a more comprehensive view of this class. First let's check out immunosuppressants, drugs that suppress some unwanted or disproportionate immune activity. These include immunophilin-bi

Immunomodulators Part 2: Immunostimulants
We just learned about immunosuppressants, so now it's time to learn about immunostimulants. As one would expect, rather than dampening immune activity, these enhance immune activity. There are instances in which immune stimulation has anti-cancer effects. These drugs include colony-stimula

As we know from our understanding of microbiology, pathogens are everywhere. So why don't we get sick all the time? And what are allergies, why do some people have them and others don't? And what are vaccines, how do those work? All of these questions can be answered by learning about the

Acetaminophen/Paracetamol (Tylenol)
Acetaminophen, more commonly known by brand names such as Tylenol, is not a true NSAID, as it does not have anti-inflammatory properties. However, it is commonly discussed alongside NSAIDs as it has similar antipyretic and analgesic properties. Although its mechanism of action is not well-

Aspirin (Acetylsalicylic Acid)
Now that we understand the basics regarding NSAIDs, let's dive into a few specific drugs from this class. First up, aspirin. This drug has been around for centuries, but now with a modern understanding of chemistry and biochemistry, we are able to understand its precise structure and mecha

Injective, Surjective and Bijective Functions (continued)
This video is the second part of an introduction to the basic concepts of functions. It looks at the different ways of representing injective, surjective and bijective functions. Along the way I describe a neat way to arrive at the graphical representation of a function.

Introduction to Antihistamines
Everybody knows what allergies are, but what causes them? What drugs do we have available to address them? As we learned in the immunology series, allergies are symptoms of an immune response to a perceived threat. Histamine is a molecule in the body that orchestrates many aspects of this
