Amazing course teaching the innumerous opportunities in the healthcare sector and the application of AI in the same. Beautifully drafted course with intriguing tutorials and exercises.
Interesting and well crafted, it is mostly at an introductory level, but accurate and with many details regarding how to apply ML to healthcare. Worth to follow.

•Matthew and Serena are a great pair to teach the basics of Machine Learning. As a total beginner, this was well-paced and helped me to gain knowledge about the topic. Truly one of the best courses I've taken so far.

•absolutely delightful course and you can really tell that it was a labour of love for the course presenters. Incredible how they were able to give a working knowledge of the various complex machine learning tools without going into the maths, which I as a doctor would not have understood anyway. Much appreciated!!!! But a good handle on statistics is probably needed which thankfully i possess

•Excellent course in Machine Learning for Healthcare! The instructors made the course fun, while going into various topics in depth. They covered topics such as the techniques and methods used in ML, with a view to building practical applications. They also described the pros, cons, limitations and risks of each technique. They discussed the optimization techniques for achieving better results. The other part that I enjoyed was that they brought up such topics about the team composition, and how critical it is to building a model that is more accurate in prediction, as well as the importance of ethics in AI. Thoroughly enjoyed the course.

•An excellent course for professionals with healthcare background, specially for those who want to test the water before diving deep into AI in Healthcare.

•What I liked the most about this course is the sheer enthuziasm of the instructors. They definitely enjoy what they are doing and you can feel how much they tried to develop this course in order to spread the knowledge.
This course gives you a basic understanding of machine learning and is of tremeandous help for beginners, and also for domain expers that seek to broaden their view about real world applications (mainly in Healthcare).
The course is not very technical, and since it doesn't get into much details, some high-tier concepts might be harder to understand or remember if you have no prior experience to the field.
Summing up, this is a wonderful course that I highly recommend to anybody looking to start their journey in machine learning!

•Not really a course for beginners looking to understand ML. Overall, the course provides a good overview of ML in healthcare, but when it comes to actually explaining ML, it is more of a quick review. Lectures have far too much unexplained jargon and tend to talk around or gloss over key concepts. Lectures in weeks 2-4 were oddly repetitive and lacked a logical step by step flow. Instructors also read the script too fast at times. If they slowed down, spent an extra minute or two to explain the underlying ideas, it would have made a big difference. Correcting errors in the slides and providing more coursework would help too. For beginners looking for better non-technical explanations of AI/ML I'd highly recommend looking up Professors Andrew Ng and Melanie Mitchell.

•It would be amazing to go one level deeper on the sample/emerging/leading architectures using cases to illustrate how each concept works. However please take this piece of advice with a grain of salt as I am not a computer major thus lacking basic understanding of most concepts. I am immensely interested in how machine learning has been, is being, should be, can be applied to healthcare for value creation.
Excellent materials. Thank you.

•It is really good overview for people coming from a commercial background but it is done in a pretty fast manner such that I need to listened into videos again to appreciate the concept. A lot more work and reading needed to really get myself on board. I suggest a even more basic AI course prior to this module. Otherwise, if you are from Healthcare, the first 2 modules structure overviews (also very good but more US-centric) are good revisions and segway into the later module.
