Transcript

Hello and welcome to the course on the basics of human biology. I am Christine Brink and I will be your instructional guide as we tour through basic biological concepts in this series.

I have taught biology and chemistry for the last 15 years at a local highschool. I found my true passion for the last 8 years to be teaching AP biology. I gather with likeminded biology teachers and grade AP exams. I also help create course content for new biology teahers. When not teaching I am traveling and learning new things. You are never too old to learn new things. I am sure you will learn lots as we cover everything from micromolecules to genetics. I hope I inspire you with a new understanding and appreciation for the study of life.

Lets get started on this biological journey. Now go out and be your best self today, an as always happy nursing!
