I graduate with my MD in three months. I studied pharmacology in undergrad and med school. I still learn something new whenever I watch these videos. I’m so glad Hank is making science accessible. It really is a unique art form to summarize complex ideas without inaccurately portraying the core concepts.

A minor point, but the LSD abbreviation is from the German name - Lysergsäure-diethylamid Lyserg Saure Diethylamid. The "S" is for Saure, which is German for acid. This is similar to the use of EKG (the kardio is German, but it is ECG in English - ElectroCardioGram). Thank you for the great summary of the medicinal aspects of ergot of rye uses.

You caught my attention at the Parkinson's section- literally today I started on medication to help with my Restless Legs Syndrome, since I have a family history of Parkinson's and so am high risk for it later in life given my RLS. I've been given a dopamine agonist, so this was brilliant timing to understand things more!

We have a correction at 1:36! While LSD is Lysergic acid diethylamide, the abbreviation comes from the German “Lysergsäure-diethylamid.” Thanks to everyone who pointed this out!
