Good, I liked but from some of the lectures I guess it was recorded around 2012, and in this field this is starting to feel a bit dated, and may need updating in certain areas now!

From a non biological science background perspective-->Explained nicely, got to know new things which is totally different from the fiction portrayed by media and other sources.
