I learned so much with this course, and it will definitely help me to give people advice about breast cancer.
The spotlight of the lectures is professor Anees B. Chagpar, she is just spectacular!

This is a great course for anyone who wishes to get a broad spectrum of information on breast cancer, which covers all the clinical, genetic and therapeutic topics in the management of breast cancer patients. What makes the course perfect, is Dr Anees Chagpar's enthusiasm and her ability to explain every single detail in a well-structured and engaging way. Totally recommended for clinicians, health care providers, counsellors, patients and their families, or anyone else who want to have a good introduction to breast cancer.

An excellent Professor. Lot of energy and taught so methodically ,repeated and made us recapture what she had taught in the class by asking- Do you remember? , systematic and so simply put. Updated with the latest. I wish further coursers are organized with the Professor. The interviews and interactive sessions were amazing. Congratulations !!! to the Professor and giving us an opportunity to interact with top professors. Wishing Dr Anees all the very best for more courses and the work you do.

I am a nurse who just got a job as a clinical research coordinator on an oncology floor. Having ZERO experience in oncology or research -- this was a WONDERFUL course for gaining knowledge on breast cancer (it is one of the primary cancers I manage). Easy to understand and information that I've went over in the lessons clicks easily when it is brought up in practice. I took notes every lesson (that's just how I learn) and it helped. Can retake the quizzes if you don't pass and it isn't

I really enjoyed the course. I really like that it is entirely made by videos (except for supplementary material) since I usually write and read a lot, so that watching the videos was more comfortable than reading material. I am very interested in breast cancer since my phD project is on therapeutic drug monitoring in patients with this disease and I wanted to have a wider picture of it. I got a lot of new information thanks to this course and I highly recommend it.

The course is very informative for student like me who can apply the knowledge I gained through this course for my future aspect. I can share important informations to others - my friends, family and any breast cancer patient I come across in future to create awareness and spread the idea about what breast cancer is and what are the various treatment methods. Thank you Coursera team and special thanks to Dr. Anees Chagpar for sharing her knowledge with us.

I loved this course. Great material, interesting and accessible. It was particularly useful for me to learn more in depth medical research and processes for BC, for me to pass on to colleagues at our Charity, Breast Cancer Care Foundation, in Malawi, Africa. Dr Anees was an engaging and educational and I enjoyed her lectures a lot. I found the testing reasonable and felt confident in my knowledge afterewards. Would highly recommend this course!

Its a well designed, structured course and taught really well. Considering I have already knew things about the staging and classification and the general overviews of breast cancer, I have got a lot of new information regarding the clinical aspects such as surgery techniques and what parameters are important for getting which kind of surgical procedures. Thanks Yale for the Course, and Coursera for providing the platform.

I really enjoyed this course and never really stopped watching all the videos until I completed the entire course. I am very that that I came across this course, the instructor makes it more amazing as she is very experienced in this field. She teaches everything in very easy language and though being from a non-medical field I understood every bit of this course. I will highly recommend this course to everyone!

It is one of the most important courses in the field of breast cancer. The amount of information available helps any researcher in the field or even a patient understand the disease, and the credit for that goes to Dr.Anees B Chagpar. Thank you very much to her.

This course was just what I was looking for. I am entering into the field of pathology as a pathologists' assistant and this laid it all out in the simplest of terms. Now I can approach each breast case from the gross room with a lot more confidence! Now I feel like I can delve deeper into breast pathology on my own and have a solid foundation to work off. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

The course gives me important information and easy to understand for a non-science person. It really helps me ,as a breast cancer survival, to understand what was going on and what will be. The peer graded assignment made me want to do better and study more cases. Thank you very much for the team who did a very good job and many thanks to Dr Chagpar who explain everything clearly.

I REALLY appreciated this course! I was diagnosed with breast cancer in April and have been working to learn as much as I can in the interim. I actually learned that I need radiation from this course (none of my providers had mentioned it), so I am really grateful to have participated in this. Really good information, engaging professor, and well organized content.

Dr. Chagpar's introduction to breast cancer is engaging and suitable for all audiences. I have a broader understanding of all aspects of breast cancer - from diagnosis to survivorship. I especially enjoyed the format. Dr. Chagpar appeared at a desk alongside a slide deck, which made it feel as though I was having a conversation with her in-person.

O curso é bastante completo, abordando desde aspectos introdutórios do câncer de mama (o que é, classificações, modalidades de tratamento, etc) até questões atuais, como ensaios clÃnicos e a correlação com o covid-19. Recomendou muito a todos que trabalham na área ou gostariam de se aprofundar por questões de ensino.

Introduction to Breast cancer is an excellent course ! Anees Chegpar is an awesome and entertaining teacher. She speaks clearly and efficiently.
The course is not too difficult to understand, it is well designed for patients, friends or family of patients and people simply willing to know more about breast cancer.
