Here’s a playlist of videos on metabolism: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUWsCDtjESrHXBgulruKEOrNXQ21_0gyc
Here’s a video with recommendations for studying metabolism – what to focus on, etc. https://youtu.be/W2vOFQ-4pEY
Here’s a metabolic spreadsheet template you can fill in to help you keep track of things: https://bit.ly/metabolism_spreadsheet
As well as a video explaining how to use it and what I recommend focusing on: https://youtu.be/atA9_o5BGAw
Here’s a link to the Google drive where you can find the latest graphics and download them: https://bit.ly/metabolism_graphics
And you can find some of my graphics on Zenodo
Note: feel free to use any of my graphics, but please cite the bumbling biochemist if you do. Thanks!
