WOW!!
By SHUBHAM S. on 04. March 2019 for Pharyngeal Arches

Just AMAZING!!!! Thank you Dr Peter for making this lecture so easy. This made me understand more rather than mugging up the derivatives.

 
It was really enjoyable learning with Dr Peter
By Irfan M. on 13. January 2019 for Development of Eye

I really like the making of the content of the lecture so short and placing only the most important facts However, I feel that it would increase the understanding if an animation would be involved
