Very good course giving a broad overview of what cancer is and how we diagnose and cure it.
Don't expect to be a specialist of cancer after it, it's only an introduction. But it is a good introduction giving some bases if you want to go further.

Un curso muy bien estructurado y claro que te introduce hacia la biología del cáncer, sus principales marcas, el desarrollo de la metástasis, la forma cómo es detectado, tratado y monitoreado. Recomendado si eres principiante en el tema.

The course is quite simple and easy to follow. Very suitable for students who have no understandings in this area. The workload is also small so I suggest those who were major in biology or chemistry you dont have to follow this course.

This is an excellent course to introduce you to the biology of cancer. It helps you to understand the basics, or refresh your memory if you have taken a cancer course in the past. Basic knowledge is helpful but not required.

A good introduction to cancer biology which is suitable for beginners. Even though I have some background knowledge on the molecular basis of cancer, I still learnt a lot about imagining and treatment of common cancers.
