This is exactly what I was looking for. Finally a clear indication on what the study of biomedical science is. Thank you
Thanks for the kind words, Lindi! Does me well to hear that I made it very clear. And that was the goal: to provide a clear concept of what it is so that young people are drawn to it because they understand what they can expect :D Please, help spread the word if you know others that are interested ;) Cheers!

Who is eligibile ??
Same here finally I found
@@heercollections6952anyone with the motivation and effort can do it
CEO of “duh”
Hahahaha! Duh as a company would obviously makes obvious things...duh ;)
Biomed Master really though, great content, got me thinking about changing majors
@@PlasticGhoul Thanks, man! What are you doing right now? And where and in what year?
Biomed Master right now I am working and am in my second year of college towards a degree in biomedical science, I may switch to medical studies or something similar though
@@PlasticGhoul Sure, why not. I promote Biomed, bt I don't have anything against people who then DO go forward to medical school. I just want to raise awareness that Biomedical Scientists and researchers are necessary for medical support and advancement, and that it's not a shame to be (become) one, either if you chose directly, or were kind of forced because there wasn't room directly in med school. We're all in this together, the healthcare sector. If you indeed feel you want to help patients from patient to patient, then you should follow your heart at the given time! :)
Good luck combining both work and studying. No rest for the wicked! ;)
When you realise there is something you can do other than be a doctor if you have interest in human biology 😂
On a serious note, watching this video really helped me as I was damn confused in terms of what I should choose as a major 😄
That's great to hear! :D Biotech is also still an option for you, with the option to choose biomedical biotech as major, or bio-engineer with cell and gene-tech as a major, or biology with focus on molecular biology... plenty of options for those interested in the molecular aspects of human disease! ;)
@@Biomeducated Hey ! Thanks for replying... I guess I could consider biotech as an option but am not that inclined towards it the reason being am more interested in knowing about the drugs and the medicines and well rather than the technological aspect the medical is what interests me I guess.
TBH I am kinda scared😂😅 but your videos are surely awsm! Super informative!
@@Biomeducated There's one thing I want to clarify that Since, I am still a student am I eligible for creating a researchgate account?
I got to know about researchgate from one of your videos only .. but when I tried creating an account It required the email id of the institution.
Also are there any jobs/ work experience I can do/gain as an undergraduate Fisrt year student? I am currently living and pursuing my degree from India. Are you aware of any online/ virtual jobs or maybe like a lab technician/helper jobs for people having my credentials??
In India the scope of biomed is currently not that big so am planning to go abroad for my MSc.
Do you have any suggestions/idea ABT which countries/ uni are best suited for a postgrad (Masters) in biomed
@@aehsaasroy4871 Hi there! 1. normally you can create an account on ResearchGate: the institution e-mail is just your personal university e-mail adress. 2. Related to your student job question: maybe also create a LinkedIN profile while you are at it. 3. I would suggest trying to do as many summer holidays in relevant companies. maybe in your 1st year it might just be classifying documents or something, but try to do that in a pharma or biotech or research lab of some sort. Maybe later when you get practical experience from your studies you can go back and actually do lab tasks. 4. Also, for your M.Sc, any US, Canada, Western-EU countries should be fine, or South-Korea, Japan, Australia...you get my point. I don't have a clue about 'online virtual' jobs, but I suppose this could extend to my earlier opinion at point 2: maybe also here you can get administrative tasks in relevant companies. FYI, I also heard that biomed, at least for research, is not popular (yet) in India, BUT Biotech is becoming more so, no? That's maybe why I suggest biotech, with the option to go into biomedical topics later...
Your explanation is very swift, understandable and accurate, I'm not even tensed anymore
Thank you so much! :D Hope you'll do well!
Finally exactly the video I was looking for! Not like this English biomedical women youtuber that keeps on saying she began biomedical science in Newcastle in each of her videos and never goes to the point of the Title of the videos. THANKS!
Thanks, man! Appreciate it. Hope you like the rest of the channel as well! And I think you mean Atousa on the other channel...don't be too hard on het ;) she has some good videos to help people with specific matters in the UK, though! Overall I get the feeling she actually made her videos to do good and help people out, guide them, but it's still a vlog, so there's some personal stuff in there as well, as well as some chit chat to get to know the person. It's hard to convey a positive message if you don't open up a bit to people and show enthusiasm.
Are you already studying Biomed or going to start it? If so, which country, my friend?
This has been so helpful in helping me understand what this is about. I would be applying for a biomedical science course this year and needed more information. Well explained!!!
Glad it helped you! ;) That's why I created it!
WOW Im a Nutritionist specializing in Oncology. But this is exactly what I was looking for and I didn't even know. I guess I'll also be a Medical biologist now !! Im so happy thank you Kevin !!!
Thank you and best of luck!
I recently started a Masters in Biomedical Diagnostics and I love it. I'm an engineer but late in life i discovered that engineering was actually not my passion but biomedical is.
Ow nice! Cool story :D Good luck in your M.Sc!
You can do biomedical engineering
Thank you! You just answered my big life question.
Great to hear! Best of luck ;)
Thank you so much for making me more attracted to the degree even more 😀😀
I did consider doing medicine before I took a gap year but then after doing some experience within a hospital and really thinking about the biomedical science and medicine degrees, I definitely see myself excelling during biomed as well as afterwards ☺️☺️
Good to hear, Sam ;)
This is the exact video I've been waiting for to make up my mind. No more MPH
Hi there. Nice! But: 1. what's MPH? and 2. Where will you be studying and what's your career aim? :)
@@Biomeducated I have not seen that you replied to my comments. Yeah MPH is Master in Public Health. I live in New York City.
I originally wanted to get a master in public health concentrate in epidemiology. But being in the lab doing research is better suit me
@@Pete-da-peter Aaaaah I see! Well good luck with your studies then!
By the way, I think this happens a lot that people don't get notified if I reply to their initial question...
Hi there! Huuuuuge thanks for giving some indepth information about this field of studies. I want to apply to molecular biosciences or biotechnology but I was so confused what biofield focuses on what. I’m gonna watch all your videos. Goodie! 😁🙏🙏
Haha, great to hear! Molecular bio or biotech is also a very good option though! Just keep in mind that regardless of your base degree, you could end up in similar jobs with most of these (partially) overlapping degrees! ;)
Thank you I’m thinking of taking this for my freshman year of high school I’m excited
Cool! Good luck!
Great information sir! I've always been interested in human physiology and genetics but you see in India, there are some stereotypical mentality of most people that if you want to be successful, you must go for medical studies, engineering. Being a student from Chemistry Major( Right now doing Bsc in Chemistry), I wasn't really intested in the medical practice field but I was indeed interested in the research about the field. But discussion about the field is so so low that I often find myself questioning if I'm supposed to study Chemistry. But I'm really interested in biomedical science field and want to do my PhD. Which colleges in your country are best for research in this field?
Many! In general, most European Uni's will give you a good foundation to start a research career :)
Very good video and very informative!! Keep up the work!
Thanks, man! Very motivating to hear that! Spread the word ;) Biomed ♡
Thank you so much!! You’re great for doing this 👏🏼
Thanks a lot Caramia :D stay tuned for more ;)
I used to think its the end for me since I'm interested in almost nothing since I don't really have an interest in chemistry, physics, maths and technology. I only like biology but when it comes to the plant part- nooooooooooope! Thought about doctor but I don't think I can handle the responsibility of doctors. And finally, I found out about ✨biomedical science✨. The only motivation for me to continue study harder ehehehh
Hi there! Good to hear. Biotech or bio-engineering is also still an option where you can decide to focus on human health for example. Or industrial applications, or other stuff...Check out my video on 'types of biotechnology' on my channel ;)
Wow..... thank u so much for this .needed it .You so amazing n yiu inspire me man
No, thank YOU so much Darleen! Great to get compliments like this! Means that my goals for this channel are being reached. Hope you've subscribed for future videos ;) and always welcome to spread the channel to your friends from school/college/those that love science!
I have just finished my degree in Biomedical Science completing with first class honours. I've found it quite hard finding employment in the health sector, however, I've had a lot of interest in industry. The degree itself is a brilliant subject and you develop a lot of transferable skills.
Congrats, mysto! Yeah, I can imagine you're a wanted profile for industry. But could you elaborate on what you stumbled upon in healthcare? Did you apply for MLT jobs? Or as clinical trial coordinator? Cheers, man!
@@Biomeducated Sure, I live in the UK so I wanted to work in the NHS and it's hard to get laboratory experience when you haven't yourself had experience outside of laboratory practice in school. The health service offer very few training posts and those that exist tend to be given to lab assistants who hold accredited degrees in Biomedical science. I've just taken a temporary post for now as an analyst in a water company to give me some industry experience, then I will try again.
@@mroosie7488 I can imagine that! That's what I found out as well, is that to get into an MLT function in like the NHS, you NEED the accreditation, either inherent in the study program, or if you do an extra year. That's why I recommend to look carefully if accreditation is built in (then you can go medical technologist), but if not, you are set up in more research focused Biomed program. It's the same in Belgium more or less in the sense that our study programs towards MLT are called 'Biomedical Laboratory Techniques', while the university counterpart is just called Biomedical Science :)
@@Biomeducated I'm lucky as Mine is accredited by the IBMS. Hopefully if I just build on my experience it may lead to a hospital based role.
@@mroosie7488 Best of luck pursuing your goals! Just remember that if you don't make it to a hospital, biotech/pharma research labs and other potential jobs are open for you!
Biomedical sciences is what me and most other pre med students are at my university
Hi Carter! Which uni is it you are studying? Are you pre med or went for biomed directly? What's your career plan? Cheers!
Hi, I want to be a veterinarian and I toured a specific school’s biomedical science program. Their particular program had a huge emphasis on veterinary medicine / physiology / anatomy etc AS WELL AS human medicine / physiology / anatomy etc. Their program really puts a focus on “bridging the gap” between human medicine and veterinary medicine and it would very well prepare you for further education in either veterinary school or med school. This was my first impression of biomedical science and so I assumed all programs were like that, but now after this video I realize most biomedical sciences don’t focus so much on veterinary medicine; do you think a biomedical science degree from another school would still be great preparation for vet school? Do other biomedical science programs teach veterinary medicine at all? Just wondering :)
Hi there! I think in general the focus is indeed on human illnesses. If you want to for veterinary med, directly go for that and then once you're a vet, you can continue pursuing academic research on animal specific diease mechanisms ;)
Thank you so much. Being someone from a very rich family, I'm honoured and thankful to you for explaining to us all these things about biomed. I will start classes soon. Thank you.
You're very welcome! I'm not from a rich family, I'm the 1st one in the family ever going into higher education. Now I'm going all the way. Rich is relative, and you can be rich in other things than money also :) My point being, if you will start biomed your aim will (hopefully) be the same as any other person taking the courses, regardless of race, wealth, religion: to fight disease by studying the underlying mechanisms or developing therapeutics/diagnostics! Cheers!
I came looking for EXACTLY what he describes. I appreciate how he broke it all down into subtypes as well. I have Asperger's and think this gentleman might be on the spectrum as well. We think alike.
Haha. Thanks for the nice words! Don't have Asperger's though...just a scientist/researcher mindset: to understand something better, break it down in smaller pieces ;)
@@Biomeducated Thank you for your reply! I feel Asperger's, just recently diagnosed in my 60s, has been a blessing in some ways. When I'm interested in something, I am so focused in research and this info is indelibly printed in my brain. It's just fascinating to me. Of course, the extreme sensory sensitivities are not wonderful, but we take the good with the bad.
I thought I saw that in you, hence my comment.
I'm so interested in this field as I worked with doctors for 40 years, wanted to become a doctor but didn't enjoy constant patient contact. I should have pursued research. So my medical contacts and constant research have resulted in great amounts of unusable knowledge. Actually, I have helped my loved ones in times of medical need. 🌝
This is a so perfect description
Thanks!
Great video! Very interesting to see the interest in Biomedical Science as compared to Biomedical Engineering!
I think it's complimentary ;) We're both needed to advance the medical field!
Biomed Master for sure!!! Is there any instagram or Twitter account I can reach you out through? I’d love to get in contact with you! Let me know :)
@@TheBMELife don't have Insta. Twitter I have, but I'm not sooooo active there. You find the link in description of one of my latest videos for instance ;)
Great effort, keep it up.
Thanks a lot! :D
Hi! During the bacc, what is the proportion of laboratories and research/analysis a student have to do? Thank you
Hi there! This can really vary according to university I suppose. In general, if you take an academic biomed bacc, the focus is more on theory, and shifts dramatically to practical in the master years. If you do a 3-year professional bacc for biomed (lab technician oriented) then there's way more practicals during those 3 years!
Hasbunallahu wa ni'mal wakil💕
It's so crazy how I watched your vid years ago majoring in biomed and here I am now rewatching it and in tech. Life changes so quick.
Oh really?! So did you graduate in biomed and then switch to tech, or switched halfway or so?
@@Biomeducated I reached my senior year in biomed and then the pandemic hit and I changed my major to IT.
@@emilyau8023 ow wow
Still studying Biomedical Science basics 60 years later.... "Study the sciences, acquire more and more knowledge. Assuredly one may learn to the end of one’s life! Use your knowledge always for the benefit of others;.." ~ Baha'i Faith
Never heard of this religion before. I'm somewhat agnostic-atheist, but I like the way Baha states that it integrates from almost every other religion and tries to unify the globe instead of divide. Cheers!
@@Biomeducated The Baha'i Faith believes that God was always one, man was always one family and religion was always one progressive revelation... like chapters every 500 -1000 years in one Book. (God updates the social teachings :-) Thanks for the excellent presentation.
@@francismausley7239 If there's any representation of 'God' I can fairly relate to, it would be 'the Force' from Star Wars, being a proxy of Buddhist teachings I think :) Thanks for watching and the feedback!
@@Biomeducated Yes, I see the Force as the Most Holy Spirit & Jedis as Messengers. But the use of their spirit in physical acts make them like super-heroes. God more often acts more subtle :-) However, we see that everything has a Maker and that Maker is superior to that which is made. Keep up the excellent work.
Hi Sir! I’m new to your channel, thank you for making this video. I just want to ask if it’s worth going to a University in the UK accredited with IBMS and HCPC before studying postgraduate medicine abroad the UK? (California)
Many thanks.
Hi there. If you want to become a physician, always best to direcrly go for med school. Don't waste tile doing any premed stuff. Of course, if you fail to get in, then you have to consider what to do next. This video might help: czcams.com/video/mOmfNxM2FQo/video.html
Could u please tell me the difference between a health science and biomedical science degree.Also I dont like maths and chem even tho Im from a science backgroud I like Biology and health related stuffs so which one do u think would be better for me?
Hi, actually i have a question that if i have my interest in viruses and wanted to do research on diseases related to it on future then what course should i apply for? Is it biomedical science or biology?
If you are interested in human diseases then you best go for medicine, biomedical science or biochemistry/biotechnology ('red biotech'). Biology as a study course nowadays is usually focused on other stuff besides (human) disease because the fields I've just mentioned have become courses on their own ;) Again, the curricula can differ greatly per university/country
Such an informative video! I have a question. I’m really wanting to study biomedical science however I don’t think I qualify right now, however I qualify for a bachelor of science and a bachelor of psychological science. I’m thinking about beginning with one of these and then transferring. Which would you recommend? I have a keen interest in neuroscience. Thank you!!! 😊
Hi there! Thanks! Uhm, I'm not sure. Different countries have different structures in terms of going through higher education for specific majors. So you don't have the option to take a B.Sc or undergrad program in biomed directly? My B.Sc was one in biomed (Belgium).
Hello Kevin.
First of all, I would like to mention how I find your videos incredibly useful and inspiring.
I will start my biomedical sciences course this year.
I just have 2 questions:
will the confidence of working in a lab with all the instruments increase?
Also, and in case you still remember, can you please mention a few lab works you've done on your 1st year of biomedical sciences. I would like to have a read about them beforehand.
As you may already notice, I think I need to improve my confidence levels about lab work, as I feel a bit anxious.
Thanks
Thanks so much for the great feedback, Cadija!
Don't feel anxious, like any new skills to learn, you start from 0. Indeed it might be frightening to handle equipment that potentially costs a lot and reagents that are strange to you, but pretty sure course organizers cover this as safeguards! Yes you will grow in this. I had shaky hands too 1st time handling cell culture. And If I need to operate equipment myself for the 1st time, it's still always a bit exciting. Preparation can do a lot and indeed reading a bit upfront (perhaps a manual or a protocol can help boost your confidence). What I remember was simple titrations in inorganic chemistry, and making nylon polymer in organic chemistry. Besides that, I think dissecting a frog was also year 1, and then plenty of exercise classes in physics and maths in year 1 :)
Hey, I have a question! I have an undergrad degree in Public Health, and I fell in love with Biology during my studies. Now, I’m considering doing my graduate degree in Biomed, but my concern is Chemistry and Physics. Simply put, I hate them. Is this common? Also, what’s your advice for someone in my shoes?
I'm not so sure there! I think the main question is: if you would want to go into biomed, how much chem/physics did the biomed undergrad have in it. In my uni at least, basically whole 1st semester of year 1 was a repetition of all STEM things from middle/high school (I know, in 1 semester! ;)). Answering questions for people has learned me there's much variation in curricula between Uni's and between countries. Perhaps your Uni of choice will directly have more applied courses in year 1 undergrad. Point is: perhaps you don't need that much basic chemistry/physics anymore, but it also depend on what major more specifically you want to go after. If you're aiming at radiation for example, you will need physics! I have no cue what you learn in public health so what your basis already is good for. Still, I believe if you really want something you can after it! My best advice: check the requirement for entering a biomed graduate program: most likely or most definitely you will need to catch up on courses from biomed undergrad: identify these early on, check the data sheets of the specific courses and go on youtube to learn the specific (most likely already highly applied) chemistry and physics matters). Here some channels to get you started: czcams.com/video/n-gdNQn7pvg/video.html. And here some options for graduate biomed type of programs: czcams.com/video/V4jsDG_5C0k/video.html.
Biomed Master Thank you so much for your thorough feedback, I’ll look into all of it. This really helps. Hopefully in two years or so I’ll come back to comment section and say that I have a Biomed grad degree.
@@abeersaleh5923 Looking forward to that! ;) Best of luck!
Hi I have taken chemistry and higher maths (but not the advanced) and want to do biomedical science? I have good grades though I only took 1 year of biology after a timetable clash. So I don’t have senior level knowledge in it but I used to love it. Should i buy a few textbooks for summer study or do a university level bridging course?
Textbook can be great, but for these purposes I suggest you best snoop around on the internet and find topics that fall within the courses of the 1st year of biomed course you want to go into. Here's maybe a starter: czcams.com/video/n-gdNQn7pvg/video.html
Hi, I'm currently studying Chemical Sciences with Medicinal Chemistry. I am seriously considering a masters in Biomedical Science but I'm worried I don't do enough biology currently in my studies to succeed. I realistically only did basics of cell biology, microbiology and human body and disease. Currently I have the more chemical aspects (How metals interact with the body, methods of action that drugs take etc..) but I'm worried it won't be enough to pull me through. I've always wanted to study biology with a huge desire to go into the field of pathology but my grades were lacking and chemistry was my only option. Just wondering if you have an opinion on the matter.
I think you CAN go for a Biomed Masters if you want to, BUT perhaps you will need a bridge year to catch up with the knowledge you'd be lacking...in my uni, at least, you also require a bridge year going from biotech undergrad to a biomed master's, and that's more related than medicinal chemistry! I have a colleague now who has 2 masters: 1 in biomed, 1 in pharmacy... If you really want it, go get it! ;)
@@Biomeducated Thank you so much for your reply. The issue is, my uni only offers the undergrad in biomedical sciences and there's nothing similar to the 'bridge year' that you're referring to. Might just have to contact the staff in my uni within the biomedical area and the staff in the other universities for the masters and see what are the key aspects I'd need to understand before attempting the masters... Thanks so much :)
@@declanlindsay7558 Yeah, higher education can differ so much between countries and even between uni's in the same nation! Indeed do your research and hopefully it works out! Let me know how it plays out. In the meanwhile, welcome to sub. Perhaps you can find useful videos here along the way ;) Good luck man!
Thank you so much
Very welcome! ;)
So can you go on to do medical research from doing a biomedical science degree?
Hi there! Good question. I've added it to the list for the upcoming Q&A videos ;) (czcams.com/video/WTcdxw2LGEc/video.html).
I am sooo confused btw biological science and biochemistry!! Can u please tell which one is good as in terms of jobs?
When u said maths i got a mini heart attack 😂
Oooooooowwwwhh :D it's a bit early for thrombosis if you still need to start studying ;) Don't worry, some biomed courses have integrated maths/physics, some uni's provide a full recap of all prior knowledge, it really depends...but it's a long way from maths like in engineering stuff ;)
@@Biomeducated pheww i hope so, some people are saying we need the sandwich year which is I don't understand could u elaborate plz
@@bebemoh6782 Well, that is something that's more specific for the UK. See, if you want to work in a medical/clinical lab, you need accreditation, so you need placements in IBMS accredited labs to be able to progress into the workfield. That is if you specifically want that job type. If you are more into research or are planning for other job types (check my other videos!) you don't need that placement year that much I think. Also check Atousa's channel, where she explains on this for the UK situation on accreditation. In Belgium it's actually two different types of biomed courses, one called biomedical science, and one called biomedical lab techniques. In the UK the line is perhaps a bit blurred...so make sure to check that in your uni selection!
@@Biomeducated okay gott ya I'll be doing mine in Sweden or Germany
@@bebemoh6782 Just make sure to double-check there as well! The accreditation is mostly necessary if you work with medical/clinical patient samples for diagnostic reasons!
I’m planning to study biomed at Florida Tech. I want to be a pathologist.
Cool! Good luck! Study hard!
was trying to find a subject that is more focused on human biology but I don't really want to be a doctor, biomedical science will be a good choice for me !
Best of luck!
I have a dilemma: I can't choose between biochemistry and biomedical sciences. How exactly do these two differ and what do you think is a "better major"
Which one is 'better' could perhaps depend on which country you study it at. Perhaps biomed is not so popular (read: = recognized) in some countries. Biochem is often given in conjunction with biotech (at least here in Belgium). The thing is = there can be much overlap with biomed if you take biochem/biotech with a focus on 'red' biotech (= healthcare focused, in other words, biomedical or biopharmaceutical focused). If you want to work in things like agrotech, or develop biofuels or design enzymes for waste disposal for instance, then you should go for biotech. if you are interested in (human) disease, biomed is your option, BUT you could take that route with biochem/biotech too if you decide for 'red' biotech in your later years of study! ;)
Hi I’m going to start my biomedical degree this year, just a quick question, do you recommend going to PA (physician associate) school after graduation.
Thanks
Hi there! To be honest, I had to look up what a physician associate is and does. Apparently, this was only introduced in the Netherlands around 2004, and in my country Belgium it is almost unknown. From what I understand you become a doctor who only does the routine tests. I am not involved in anything clinically/diagnostic as I'm a PhD researcher, so I can't really recommend anything on this :) sorry!
May i ask if all biomedical science courses in universities primarily have the same outline of the syllabus to study or do different universities in different countries/states have slight variances in their syllabus?
1. You may ask anything, that's why I'm here. 2. You're correct, there are nuances between Uni's (even within the same country perhaps!). I will make a video on this rather sooner than later ;) so stay tuned. Welcome to the channel by the way!
@@Biomeducated Thank you so much !! Your videos are extremely useful...
1. So I could just search on university websites and can check the provided modules for their biomedical science courses?
2. Secondly, is biomedical science a 3 years full-time program and +1 year for honours? Or is its 3 years + 1 year to settle into your major? How does it actually work?
Thank you so much once again. Also, apologies if you have already made videos of these topics that I brought up, you can redirect me to those videos if that is the case1
@@ashleyawsm Thanks, man!
1. Yes, best to shortlist some Uni's you have interest in and check their build-up.
2. undergrad (B.Sc) is usually 3 years. grad (M.Sc) is usually 2 years. But then depending on what you would like to do later, there for instance in the UK the option to do a placement year in order to build your portfolio if you want to become a registered NHS biomed to work in medical labs. Really carefully evaluate what the specific biomed program aims to deliver.
Mine in Belgium for example was 3 B.Sc + 2 M.Sc, no built-in accreditation (so no option to work in a medical lab with patient samples for diagnosis) which means you're trained for research. My thesis year, the 2nd M.Sc has an incorporated 'placement' of 18 months in a chosen research lab at my Uni.
I'm so glad to watch this video
But I still don't understand why I'm being told not to pursue biomed in Australia since many people drop it once the get to the university
What would advice me biomed or nursing
I m a doctor graduated with mbbs degree from bangladesh in 2016...however instead of going to the clinical side i now want to persue research, preferably msc biomed sciences in ukm malaysia...what do u think about it...would u suggest research based or coursework based curriculum??
Hi friend! and by doctor you mean you are a physician/MD? I definitely would suggest to focus on a research based curriculum if you want to go for research. Maybe even consider a PhD? I have no idea hat the job options would be either academically/industrial for a PhD in bangladesh/malaysia, so make sure you do good research yourself with the institutions where you would study!
Thanks, very informative video. I'm really confused these days. I have to choose between microbiology and biomedical science. Some people tell me not take take biomedicine as it has more physics and math which I suck at and that I should go for microbiology. Any suggestions?
It depends, some uni's might incorporate more/less maths/physics + also dependent further downstream which major you are going to take within biomed. have a look at my other video on 1st year biomed and majors in biomed! Within biomed, you can choose to go for microbiology too, at least in some uni's or in some sort of other way where you will be more focused on bacteria because for example you are studying the immune system and pathogens...

HI! I’m want to follow the premed track next year so would your recommend me to take biology or biomedical sciences?
I think Biomed is the route most premeds take :)
I'd recommend to watch this too: czcams.com/video/mOmfNxM2FQo/video.html
Thanks!!!
Glad it helped! ;)
Hi. I don't know if you're still doing videos and would answer my question. I am planning to go for biomedical science studies and my university that I choose offers to go into field of neurology which intrigues me. However I am wondering do I need to study something else after I finish biomedical science undergraduate degree if I want to research and create drugs or work with cancer research ? Also I am 27 so I am a bit older than any other students,but I don't believe that age is a problem really. Have a good day !
Hi Avonia! Yes I still do, so welcome to sub ;) Age is indeed no problem. I'm 30 and in my 2nd year PhD ;) it depends what you want to do: research as in plan and analyze the experiments and projects, or just execute them in the lab, like in drug discovery in a biotech? For the first, you probably best should get at least a masters, or even a phd. For the latter, you can do that with an undergraduate. Then in the last case there's the chance to prove yourself within the company you work that you want to promote to scientist level for research, but not every company is flexible/open that way, plus it will take you longer. The reason I am doing a PhD now is that I wanted to plan and analyze the data instead of performing them in the lab, and I have a masters...
@@Biomeducated Omg thanks for your reply! I didn't expected it lol. Well I'd like to discover drug and create as many drugs as possible. My mother she's a nurse and she encourage me to go for it. I am 27 and the university also encouraged me with the motivation I have. After biomedical science I am thinking to go for pathway to medicine program at the same university I will be starting this year ( Northumbria University ), however I am also taking foundation year for biomedical science since my grades was little low. So I really hope in the future to achieve my dreams. Good luck for you too !
@@avoniadevile3035 best of luck! ;)
If you could estimate as well for me, how much would someone fresh out of school with a bachelors in biomedical, and additionally a masters in biomedical earn first year? I haven't been able to find much information on this topic. Thanks!
I fail to find examples of useful products biomedicals make. This science existed for over 50 years; there must be something exceptional they created. Anyone?
In a strict sense 'they' discovered numerous biomolecules that are involved in disease mechanisms which form the basis to develop new therapies. Most 'drug-targets' that biotech/pharma companies focus on to develop their new therapeutic candidates are chosen based on a body of literature about that target, which is generated by biomedical researchers. In that sense, the product created by biomedical research is knowledge, mostly in academia. Nonetheless, biomed graduates can actually work in biotech/pharma and help develop the actual new therapies. In that sense, the combined effort of various life science graduates in a biotech company (biomed,biotech,pharma,bio-engineers,etc.) can lead to useful products. One recent example: Cablivi (www.sanofi.com/en/media-room/press-releases/2019/2019-02-06-17-43-21)
Hello @biomeducated , so currently I am in my first year doing a biomedical science degree, and am finding it quite difficult but looking to keep going. My question, the people who do this degree am I limited to only getting a job in the science field? Because I’m heavily interested in finance and marketing as a career as apposed to science.
Hi Karam! For sure you could deviate towards that. You can apply for marketing jobs for instance at a company delivering consumables for biotech or pharma industry for example. Or how about adding some finance education on top of your biomed background: financial expert on biotech/pharma market at a bank. There's many options to combine different interests. I had a testimony of a graduate before me that said to work as a manager in a factory that produces cardboard boxes... YES, after finishing his M.Sc in Biomed...
@@Biomeducated wow thanks alot for your insight!
Could you explain me further the difference between biomedical engineering and biomedical science for bachelor degree? What makes them different and what makes them similar? Could you also tell me which one has better job opportunities? Would I be able to work in pharmacy with these bachelor degree? I plan to go onto medicine but then if things didn't work out for me with the MCAT, I need to make sure there is good enough job demands...
And thanks for the video since it quiet helped me realise Biomedical Science isn't so bad after all. Keep it up!
Ohh and can i also know how you make that writing video with your voice as well... I wants to share some things with the world too.
Heyyyy won't you answer my questions...?
@@t.k7129 Sorry for a later reply. Immediately after I liked your comment I actually had to get groceries for my grandparents because they can't lave the house (COVID-19 threat) ;). This evening I am doing an interview for someone with a channel focused on Biomedical Engineering! We will discuss the overlap between Biomed Eng and Sci. I will share the link in my community tab somwhere next week so stay tuned! Also I will make a video comparing them in more depth perhaps. In terms of job options, I think both give good chances, but perhaps this differs from country to country of course... in both cases, any biotech/pharma job is increasingly in demand. No, you can't become a pharmacist with a biomed degree directly (but you can go work in a pharmaceutical company!). Good luck with the MCAT, I hope you succeed. The program is called videoscribe by the way.
@@Biomeducated Thank you so much for your reply :) I can't wait to hear that interview! Take good care of yourself too in time like these( Covid-19). And thank you , I will work my very best.
Could you tell me how to make a video like the above? Is it costly? I am currently a highschool student and want to share my knowledge on certain subjects that I have studied...Making a website seem tough so I am thinking about a video like above. Anyway, Thank you so much and best of luck with your own journey!
@@t.k7129 You can watch the interview here: czcams.com/video/Mvw_Yu1e3rc/video.html
VideoScribe has different subscriptions formats (www.videoscribe.co/en/buy). And yes you should, if you feel like you can share something with the world, just do it! ;)
Can you reply this too..😂 I have nth really to do during this convid-19 so...I plan to make videos which will allow me to help others. Could you give me a head start by telling me the process in making a video like above?
If you’re doing it to save lives, you won’t last.
What do you mean more exactly?
Can you please tell me which textbook do first year students use for biomedical science
hi I have a question! I'm currently a senior high school student and I'm not really sure on what I want to take up for college, but I kind of find biomedical science interesting, any advice on where I can find more information about it?
This channel ;) and search for programs at specific universities/colleges of interest. Also use CZcams and type biomedical science ;)
This channel. And search specific universities and their biomed programs. Also on CZcams you can find many more information
@Biomeducated thanks!!
I have a question, I am planning on pursuing to be a neurosurgeon and my option is to take biomedical science but can I take BS Biology for the job that I want to pursue?
Neurosurgeon? You need to take medicine for that! ;)
Thanks for this. I finished my Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Chemistry. Is it a good idea to complete my Ph.D. in Biomedical science as I am so interested in Biochemistry or molecular biology research?. Or I will struggle in it?
You could go for chemistry PhD project that is biomedically focused perhaps... check the following channels for examples: * (here chemistry with a biotech focus) czcams.com/video/HZAShhAySAA/video.html
* here chemistry with biomed focus) czcams.com/users/anniochan
If you do biomedical science without the 1 year sandwich work placement and than do masters later. Can you please tell me what jobs i can get into?
As after finishing my undergraduate biomedical science i want to apply for Physician associate for which 1 year work placement is not needed. But I wanna have a 2 options too (in case) and biomedical scientist would be hard as they need the 1 year work placement.
Thanks for your help
Hi there! Well, I suppose indeed that the 'work experience' is to build that portfolio in order to get registered as a biomed in the NHS. In my opinion I think the work experience could help you in all cases, even if you are looking for a job in industry somewhere. You need to ask yourself how much 'real time actual lab experience' you have gotten after your B.Sc. If it ain't that much, I suppose it's going to be harder to get any industry position as well... perhaps working in research labs would be a good starting point? Maybe after a few years of building experience, you can aim for lab positions in industry? (or just go and do the PA thing ;))
is basic chemistry enough for biomed degree?
Huh, I see. So, it's the combination of all branches of life sciences and applied sciences in one subject i.e, Biomedical Science. Do I get it correct or am I wrong?🤔
You're more or less right. Indeed Biomed is very mix-and-match. But medicine is also highly applied biological sciences. You don't get a lot biotechnology or biochemistry or molecular biology in medicine for example. If choosing biomedical, you do give up the option more or less to study plants for example agricultural biotechnology, but you have to make a choice somewhere :)
There's no plant physiology or botany in biomed for instance :)
@@Biomeducated ah, I got that!
@piyushsuthar06@gmail.com Yes!
@piyushsuthar06@gmail.com BSc (H) Zoology
@piyushsuthar06@gmail.com Btw, where do you want to take admission in India and in which specific course?
Pls I'm confused on what to study between MSc medical biochemistry and biomedical sciences
Can you put a video about microbiology scope in Canada and admission percentage to admission in universities?
That 's a very very specific question, my friend, and I don't have time to make a specific video on that. I'm in Belgium by the way, so I have No idea on admission rates at universities, especially not coming from other countries. I would advise to search google on keywords like 'microbiologist employment rate in canada' and check admission procedures for a specific university of your choice in Canada. I think there will be differences between Uni's within Canada as well, so there's no black and white answer. Good luck on your search!
Thanks so much!
You're welcome!
Hi firstly nice video!
Also I Wana knew the sections in this major biomedical science can you name them for me?
Yeah also is imbyology is it one of them?
Thanks so much, Sasori! And sure I can: usually you can go into one of the following, depending on whether you go for a medical lab setting, or go into research:
Medical Lab specialty areas:
- haematology
- biochemistry,
- microbiology
- parasitology
- immunology,
- toxicology
- pathology
- genetics
- embryology and IVF
- forensics
Biomedical Research specialty areas:
- Nutrition & Metabolsim
- Immunology and Infection
- Regenerative Medicine (Tissue Engineering)
- Developmental biology and embryology
- Neuroscience
- Medical Radiation
- Medical Genetics
- Cancer
- Systems Biology (-omics, so much bioinformatics!)
- and then basically you also classify according to medical specialty areas, like 'cardiology, hepatology, gastroenterology, rheumatology, etc...)
Often many topics are at an intersection of many biological and/or technical specialties, that's what makes it all interesting!
I'm for instance in experimental hepatology, but also focused on gastroenterology and on immunology.
Cheers,
Biomed Master!
@@Biomeducated thank!
Also about biology major... When people say biology major do they mean biomedical science?
If isn't not what the defreant between them?
Do they do labs activities?
@@sasorinono2268 No, biology is not necessarily the same! Biology is very broad, so you can get into animals and plants as well. However, you could dive into molecular biology as a major in the end and end-up in the biomedical field for a research career or work as a molecular biologist in industry. But do note that perhaps you will less training and knowledge on medical sciences like physiology, pharmacology etc.
Always check the curricula of the courses/major and Universities you are interested in!
Msc medical microbiology after can I do biomedical scientist job and biomedical scientist used sthethascope pls answer
If you studied medical microbiology most likely you will be able to work as a medical lab scientist, or with your master's even go into research, but no, biomeds don't use stethoscopes like physicians do :)
I am doing biotechnology but in the future I want to specialize in medical biotechnology and then a phd in molecular medicine
Nice! Well, I guess you are part of my audience as well! Like I explain, there's overlap in so many ways. Welcome to the channel, my friend!
@@Biomeducated yes hahaha thank you. I was watching a lot of videos form the other side of the scientific CZcams community like Andrew Dotson, Major Prep, flammable mathematics and so on. Then I figured out that there was something missing, a biomedical channel in the community; and then I found your channel😂
@@lucabonaccio Good to now I'm filling the gaps :D I will have a look at those other channels you mentioned! Thanks for sharing!
@@Biomeducated hahaha good. For those channel that I mentioned before... they talk about the other sciences like physics, engineering and mathematics, they are also well formed channels, with more than 70k subs. For that reason I was suprised when I saw your channel! Because, like you said, you can fill the gap! Keep going on!
@@lucabonaccio Thanks, man! I will :D
Where i can find biomedical science student community?
Hey! I took bsc hons in biomedical biology. What are career after that?
I start to be confused between two majors biomedical science and Medical laboratory sciences. Medical laboratory sciences is a new major that I really get into it and I liked it,but the really question is what the defreant between the two?
And I if I Wan to choose the one that study iliness and sickness which one would be?
(the easy one to)
That is indeed a very good question, and that's something I try to explain a lot on this channel. There's need for careful consideration when choosing a biomed course and it's associated university or college! Could you show me the link to the 2 majors please, I will have a look what the focus is and the difference between the two to help you!

@@Biomeducated I already got an haf answer so yeah
THANKS ANYWAY!
If we do pre med in biomedical
Is it necessary to take math and physics as well, cuz when I think about math I go crazy, cuz I dint took math during my high school,its quite difficult for me
Don't worry, math and physics (if you get them) are mostly 'applied' and nothing compared to what you would get in engineering ;)
@@Biomeducated thank you...
You mean like the math we take are all basic
@@clachenpa It will depend on which uni. Some courses include a full recap of all basic math subjects like limits, differentials, integrals, chance calculation, etc. Other uni's take math concept applied for biological problems. If a 1st year of biomed is 100% I think maths will make up 10-15% of all courses. Statistics will be more important, perhaps in 2nd or 3rd year.
Is biomed students can become a doctor in europe countries with doing some examination ??
To become a physician (doctor in the clinic) you need to take an entry exam, regardless of whether you did biomed before or not... ;)
Hiya i wanted to know about the job opportunities and security for biomed??? Is it hard to find employment?
Cfr. my other reply! ;)
I love the channel name
Great to hear, Tamara! :D welcome
What If I want to be on the computer science/ data science side?
My. Old roommate graduated with bio med and he was so coked out he couldn’t tell 3 from 4. Everyone has their path, I suppose?
Coked out? Or cHoked out? :p You sure can get on the computer science/data science side: go for computational biology or bioinformatics and try to graduate in a biomedical-oriented topic! ;)
@@Biomeducated clever :p
Unfortunately, I’m close to graduation. I’m looking into graduate school with an interest in biotech. We will see what the future holds.
Thank you for the great content! Cheers.
@@coreydevs Thanks, man! Yeah, I mean, a lot of stuff is pushed towards data science level. Singel cell RNA seq or any 'omics' stuff requires computational power/skills, so try to find a topic that uses that stuff if you want to become proficient in it!
I want to become a doctor but obviously I have to go to med school. Is biomedical sciences a good degree for med school? What are my chances of getting into med school?
If I want to develop new drugs and medications or improve previous ones for diseases, should I study biomedical science or pharmecutical science?
That's a very good and relevant question! If you don't mind, I will take this one on priority for the upcoming 1st live stream coming Friday at 7 PM GMT+ 02. I will answer there for everyone here to see. Hope you can join!
@@Biomeducated oh my gosh! Consider yourself subscribed :)
Is math hard in this major?
How much should I get in math to get this major?
Hi there! To be honest, how much maths you get was also a factor I considered when choosing my major back in my day. Maths are far less hard than like any engineering topic (including biomedical engineering). Still, you need the basics though, and one branch of maths that's very important is statistics! Especially if you want to get into research! In my particular courses I had maths in year 1 that covered anything from real functions, limits and continuity, rows and series, matrices, derivatives, integrals, first and second order differential comparisons, to applied models like exponential growth of a bacterial cell culture. How much you should get I can't really tell because your educational scoring system is probably way different from mine here in Belgium. Nevertheless, if you're motivated you just 'swim through this mathematical pond' and in the years after you much more applied concepts in biological science fields! The general courses like basic physics, chemistry and maths is just something you need to go through, but it's part of the journey. You can't do science without knowing some basic maths, and that's the cold hard truth. But don't worry, if you get the concepts, you will be empowered to apply them in the future! Good luck my friend!
With this degree what job you can do and is there a job widely available once you finish your degree????
Hi there! There's many factors to consider! My suggestion is to have a look at my playlists and you will find some answers! ;) :D
I'm studying in BSc Zoology (undergraduate)
There's a lot of branches in Zoology but
I'm interested in Biomedical Science 🙂
Please suggest me, What should I do to build my career in Biomedical Science?
You could take a gap year program to prepare for a M.Sc in biomed and then go forward with the actual M.Sc!
@@Biomeducated Thanks for your important suggestion ❤️
Love that vidoe thanks
I have a question
What do you think of someone who has a pharmacy degree and Msc in biomedicine
I think the world is at your feet! From your pharmacy undergrad background you might have a stronger basis in analytical and organic chemistry. You have the same options as a 'full' biomed would, but I'm not sure if you can become a pharmacist without a MA in pharma. Funny thing: my PhD colleague has done biomedicine (BA+MA) and then an additional MA in pharma :D Thanks for the kind words about the video my friend!
@@Biomeducated can with Msc in biomedicine can work in the pharmaceutical companies in the R and D department in order to find cure or improve certain drugs .
@@mohammedali3200 yes you can! I worked in R&D for 5 years with my MA in biomed!
@@Biomeducated ooh thats nice can i get more information about that like what exactly did you do and stuff
And thanks for your help really appreciate it
@@mohammedali3200 send me a mail buddy, you can find my e-mail in the about section ;)
In your opinion, what major would be best for someone who wants to go to medical school and become a surgeon?
Medicine, for sure ;)
@@Biomeducated Oh I meant for college, my bad.
Hi. I recently got enrollment in Bachelor of Biomedical Science at Deakin University,Australia. I aim to pursue MD. What are the prospects of this course int erms of PR and job?
Hi there! What is PR? Also, try to enroll again for Med School after 1 year of biomed. Usually it will be more satisfying to go directly for med school if you want to become a physician rather than waste 3 years of doing biomed.
Hey ..
Can you suggest me to do MSc in Biomedical science after B Pharm
Or either i go for Pharm D
What did you suggest to me
Hi I wanted ask this in my country I wasn’t able to find a post-grad course that was purely biomedical sciences instead it is named as Biomedical Sciences AND Engineering, now I graduated as a Chemist, am I eligible for application or should I research another cours?
Hi there! Well, this really depends on the guidelines of the university you study at. In what country do you study if I may ask? In any case, I feel you would have to catch up on some biological stuff before you could enter a full-bown Biomed course, purely coming from chemistry... you probably don't have much knowledge on things like anatomy, physiology, pharmacology, etc., right?
Biomed Master I am from Turkey and as you said there wasn’t any classes on Anatomy, physiology and etc. while there was a heavy focus on Organic Chem and Biochem, also as you said I did a research on the focus of this program Computational and Quantative Biology, Biometric materials and Islet Cell, Bioengineering Robotics and Mechanics, Computational Biology and Bioinformatics, Molecular Biochemistry, Computational Systems, Biofluidics and Cardiovascular Mechanics, Polymer Science & Technology Research, Mitochondrial Biogenesis, Cell Biology, Microphotonics, Optofluidic and Nano-Optics; for these I talked with a friend who studies Mechatronical Engineering with an interest in Biomedical Engineering and she explained while some of these research areas are about Biomedical Engineering, some of them look closer to Bioengineering. Also on the page of the program they said they accept students with Bachelor’s from Natural Sciences, Medicine and Engineering so basically a wide range of students and also some of the classes for this program also matches with the classes of Molecular Biology and Genetics Post-Grad program of the same university.
@@s.egek.2386 This indeed sounds like more biomedical/bio- engineering focused courses! Thing is, you have some basic courses in there like Mitochondrial Biogenesis, Cell Biology. that's a bit the thing: the overlap between several programs in different universities. In any case, as I love ALL this stuff, to me that program sounds really cool. Also, there's a good focus on bioinformatics (computational biology) and this will increase in demand in the years to come, so that would be a good investment! If they accept your bachelor's degree, you're good to go ;)
Biomed Master Thank youu, I will apply in the coming months so hopefully I’ll get accepted
@@s.egek.2386 Best of luck, man! Have you checked out the interview I did with Meri from The BME Life (Biomedical Engineering). You can find the link in my community tab ;) Perhaps it will be useful to you :)
😅 this was supposed to be Drs job but since they switch to being "medicine providers" rather than health care providers, they needed real connection with life hence Biomedicine.
True. Biomedical researchers are now focused on the science and research so that physicians can focus more on patients. Nevertheless, there a re still physicians who combine both clinical practice and (clinical/translational/basic) research, but I don't think these people have a lot of free time haha :D
Heyyyy there!!!
I wanted to ask, which one is better : BVoc in Biomedical science or Bsc in Biomedical science??
I want to answer, but I never heard of a BVoc before, what is that :D
@@Biomeducated It's Bachelor in Vocation which is introduced in our country India solely ( I guess). It says it focuses on practical more than theory! Still not sure!
Well, then I supposethe B.Voc will train you more to become market-ready in 3 years and the other is more destined for you o progress to graduate school. I think the B.Voc will train you more to directly work in a lab doing routine practicals tests, the other will train you towards becoming a researcher.
Any rough idea of Pay-Scale for entry level jobs ?
Hi there. I have a question. Can anyone be geneticist from a bachelor in biomedical sciences? For instance, if i have a BSc in biomedical sciences and a master's degree in medical genetics, can i work as a geneticist? Or to be a part of their council?
Thanks
Hi there. It depends on how you define geneticist. Technically, someone who studies/does research on genes is a geneticist. What I think you are referring to is a medical geneticist, so that requires a medical degree from what I understood.
@@Biomeducated no. I mean that, a biologist can be considered as a geneticist if he has a master's in genetics. Does that happens with biomedical scientists as well?
@@thebiomedscientist4034 aaaah in that sense. Well yes, indeed, if you are in the field of genetics you can be a geneticist, regardless of the base degree how you got into it .

Hi, I have a doubt! i'm from Brazil, and here Biomedical Sciences is an undergraduate course. How is it there? Is biomedical science just a graduate course?
Hi there! It's both undergraduate (bachelor's) and graduate (master's) here ;) So you cannot do a master's in Biomed in Brazil?
@@Biomeducated Thank you for the answer! Here you can do both too! Is just because i heard that it was dificult to find a biomedical science bachelor in others countries! I'm happy to know that is not like that.
@@cheyennemarcal9083 Definitely not hard to find. Many countries have the full spectrum for Biomed ;)
@@Biomeducated I'm glad to know that! Thanks! :)
And can you tell me what is your university?
@@cheyennemarcal9083 Sure, Ghent University, Belgium :)
About The Grades that you need to get to become biomedical science should I get all A or only in chemistry and biology and Math and physics the onec that should get A?
I don't have a clue, my friend. In Belgium, my system allowed me to start Biomed, despite barely making it for maths. But then again, in Belgium you are also free to start a STEM at uni, even if you did humanities in high school (though it's not advised of course). I would say to check with either the uni of your interest, or snoop around Atousa's channel if you are in the UK :)
@@Biomeducated am sure that the requirements might be different here in UAE.
But thank you very much!
@@xhdx6026 Wow, I have a sub from the emirates? :D cool! Hope you can find answers! It's so crazy how educational requirements can be so different in various parts of the world...
Hmm, what about Bioinformatics?
Good point and very relevant question! I will pick this up in the upcoming Q&A LiveStreams as well! In general, biology is becoming data sciece with large datasets due to technological advancements. However, old methods can still be relevant, but in the end I think almost every discipline will have to take into account courses such as coding, AI, machine learning, data science etc for the future job roles :) ;)
This was really helpful thankyou!!
Glad to hear that Lauren! Hope you can make the right choice now ;) Just remember that although it IS a big deal (deciding what to study now, right after high school), it is your base education. You keep learning throughout your whole career after that, so you can steer in the direction your needs and wants point you to over time, because people grow, you know. I will make a video on job options and career paths soon. Also interviews with my fellow graduates are on the plan. Stay tuned , if you study Biomed, you can grow along with this channel ;)
Yes exactly! I’m going to uni next October and think I’m going to apply for biomedical sciences. I’ve been so overwhelmed trying to find a course that leads to a specific job role but I need to stop thinking about after and just do something I’m passionate about and enjoy.
@@laurentuvey9339 Indeed! Trust me, I didn't know all the options back then either. Of course the main focus - let's say - is to be a 'lab person' and either become a lab technician (more polytechnical college type of education), or a researcher (with a Master's or even a PhD). But if you find along the way that research isn't your thing, there are other options in industry as well. That's what I aim to communicate, so young people like yourself have a better idea what they can expect in their future careers. If your desire now is to know the secrets of the human body you have 2 options: either biomed, or medicine. And if you know/feel you don't want to be a clinician/physician, but rather make an impact on people's health in other ways, then you're very likely making the right choice for Biomed! If you need anything else, let me know. Maybe you can help others - that you think are interested as well (friends, classmates,...) - by sharing this video/channel. Maybe they can get convinced as well!
