TSW YouTube Channels

TSW Atlas

(https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCTemfnEI08HWQo5yHbOEWUw)

In October 2020, Dr Heba Khaled released the video 'An Overview of TSW' which in my opinion is one of the most exciting things to happen to our condition. So far, the channel only has the one video - but trust me when I say that you need to subscribe to it and watch the video immediately. I have been promised that more videos are on their way and I couldn't be more excited.

Serbian translation of the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YN7BthoX3xk
