"Lecture-casts"- A Lecture Series on General Chemistry

In this episode, I reflect on a keystone moment in graduate school, within which I worked on my graduate thesis that was centered around the significance of a phospholipid (cardiolipin) in neurodegenerative diseases, and the potential of that lipid using lipidomics to help further research endeavours.---The information contained within this episode is the exclusive work product of David Ferguson and is not to be reproduced, copied or distributed without the expressed written consent of David Joshua Ferguson.
