Great course, It help us to get a better understanding of prostate cancer. He gave simple yet good explanation about the treatment options and advantages or disadvantages of each treatment

Really great overview of prostate cancer. The lecture videos were just long enough for you to learn the materials and be able to take the quiz. I thought the pace of the course was perfect. My only suggestion would be to make the review quizzes at the end of each section include questions not found in the smaller lecture quizzes. They were often the same questions and memory helped me answer them more than knowledge!

This course is very helpful to better understand about prostate cancer. The lectures are delivered smoothly and the duration of the lectures are perfect, not too long and not too short.

An amazing course. It is very informative, interesting and the videos are short enough that you can split up the information easily and don't lose focus. A very well structured course.

Now ,, I have a clear concept on prostate cancer .

As a Pharmacy student,, this course will gonna highly help me in future ....

I would like to thank,, Mentor ....

Best of luck ....

very interesting course

can be more better if updated with new guidelines

Need to be updated

Based solely on the Week 3 content (treatment of metastatic prostate cancer), I highly recommend this course. After viewing many other videos on cancer generally and prostate cancer specifically, it was great to find a source that, in about 45 minutes, tells what treatments are appropriate and when, gives information on how long each option buys the patient, clearly and frankly describes side effects, and describes which side effects can be treated and how. All of the information was presented exactly on the level I was looking for. I am not a medical professional, just someone who has completed freshman biology (MIT 7.00x). I especially enjoyed the part about mutations in the tumor guiding treatment ("precision medicine"), and wish there had been more on that subject.

This course helps you learn more about prostate cancer biology, incidence, diagnosis, prognosis and treatment. It is important to take first the other two courses that are part of the Cancer Biology Specialization (i.e., Introduction to Cancer Biology, and Understanding Cancer Metastasis). The explanations are very clear. In some cases, diagrams are used to provide a visual representation of what it's being explained. Prior knowledge of biology is not necessary but makes it easier to understand the topics of this course.

Excellent overview. Pace was perfect. All terms/acronyms/abbreviations were spelled out. Dr. Pienta seemed to speak from a tremendous amount of knowledge and experience and was still able to distill the fundamentals down into concepts that were easy to understand. I work in Regulatory Affairs for a pharmaceutical company. This course gave me an excellent base understanding for an important disease in my company's drug portfolio. Thank you.

This course is highly recommended for medical students (and perhaps residents-in-training) who wish to have a structured understanding of prostate cancer. As the course creators are among the leading scientists working in the frontiers of this field, you can expect to get a reasonably state-of-the-art picture of prostate cancer in terms of biology, diagnosis, treatment and monitoring.

This was a wonderful course. The instructors were very comprehensible and eloquent. However, I think it is time some of the content was updated. Likewise, in a future course, I will suggest using a pointer or highlighter when explaining objects or diagrams. And finally, it will be great to include some downloadable resources for learners to refer to later or after watching a lecture.

First of all, I have to say thank you for preparing this great course. It was very helpful for a better understanding of prostate cancer. Today cancer is getting turning into a significant problem all over the world, Therefore, understanding its various aspects will help us better understand cancer as well as provide ways to treat and reduce the spread of cancer.

Considering that this is part of a Specialization combination certification, I look forward to possibly a Master Tract on Cancer Biology understanding that the Cancer Incident rate is currently skyrocketing and education is part of the arsenal for proactive prevention. In addition I see JHU having the pedigree to dispense such a course of this type.

Extremely detailed and complete course on Prostate Cancer. Lucid in understanding - though being from non-English speaking country. Detailed introduction to very technical management of Prostate cancer aided with various important treatment types and options. I'd love to learn more from the University and same group of professors and his team.

I love this professor. He is informative, succinct, and sincere; he seems to convey empathy in a professional manner while discussing such serious conditions. I am guessing that his bedside manner would be excellent in a clinical setting. The important thing here, though, is that he teaches the necessary information with exemplary care.

I consider this coarse to be vary informative for men who are 40 to 50 years of age and more. Understanding the condition of prostate cancer and its issues is very important to every man. The one thing I would like to see from this coarse is the ability to download some of the diagrams presented in the lectures.

Thank you for the coarse...

Thank You All the members of Academic Staff of this course and Coursera Staff for giving this opportunity to me under the Financial Aid category. I gained good sound of knowledge in various topics related to Biology of Cancer as well as Prostate Cancer. I wished to carry on and to complete this Specialization Course on Cancer Biology.

This may be the best-presented course on Coursera that I have taken thus far The instructor presented content in a way that was easy to understand and follow. Having prostate cancer myself this course has enlightened me sadly much more so them my Urologist, I truly wish that the instructor was my urologist.

I am a refugee doctor. I would love to become an oncologist. This course help me to increase my knowledge . Thank you so much 🥰 I request for a masters degree program in oncology or cancer research. Once a again thank you so much for all the team who works wonderfully and gives us this oppertunity.
