Build a Movie Recommendation App with OpenAI
In this project, you'll develop Pop Choice, an AI-powered movie recommendation app designed to simplify the decision-making process for movie night. Using AI embeddings, vector databases, and the OpenAI API, the app will recommend the perfect movie based on user preferences gathered through a series of open and close-ended questions. Users input their mood and preferences, and the app searches a database of movies to find the best match. As a stretch goal, the app can be adapted for group recommendations, with each participant's preferences being taken into account. You'll build this project from scratch, using any framework you prefer, like React or vanilla JavaScript, and integrate a vector database, such as Supabase. The provided data includes movie details like title, plot, cast, and IMDb ratings. This project emphasizes working with embeddings, querying databases, and generating personalized outputs using AI.

Lead Selection & Optimization
This course covers the stages of drug discovery in which promising compounds (leads) are identified, their optimal and suboptimal characteristics determined, and the suboptimal characteristics optimized to create a candidate suitable for the clinic. The course is built around a case study on the discovery of an antimalarial therapy. Assays useful for screening new compounds are outlined, examples of selection criteria for leads are discussed - such as potency, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics - and the structure activity relationships that contribute to the optimization of a lead series are considered. The phenotypic approach used by the antimalarial program will be briefly contrasted with a target-based program on a different target. Target audience: This course is suitable for life scientists, clinicians, and individuals from fields that support drug discovery (e.g., patents, finance, licensing, etc.) interested in learning more about the pharmaceutical/biotechnology sector. Advanced undergraduate coursework or practical familiarity/working knowledge in biological sciences and organic chemistry is recommended.

Creating a Product-Market Fit with Value Proposition Canvas
By the end of this guided project, you will be able to use the Value Proposition Canvas (VPC) to position your products and services around what your customers truly value or need. The value proposition is the place where your company’s product intersects with your customer’s desires. It’s the magic fit between what you make and why people buy it. And for us to practically demonstrate how the fit is created, we will analyze a Social Venture startup. The example of the case study would empower you to use the model to analyze your startup or any other company of your choice. The project is for entrepreneurs who want to test their product-market fit. Also, for intrapreneurs who want to modify their existing products, or more importantly, develop new ones that truly reflects the needs of the customers. At the end of the project, you will be able to use the Value Proposition Canvas to differentiate your offering from competition

Marketing estratégico: claves para competir con éxito
El papel del marketing difiere entre empresas y sectores. Además, la visión que los profesionales tienen del mismo depende del nivel jerárquico dentro de la organización, así como del bagaje profesional de cada uno. Quizá por ello, a menudo es mal entendido y reducido a un nivel táctico exclusivamente de comunicación. El marketing trata de identificar y satisfacer de manera rentable necesidades humanas y de la sociedad en general. Por ello, como disciplina, tiene permanentemente puesto el foco en el cliente. A nivel corporativo, el marketing debe ayudar a diseñar la estrategia; pero también es parte fundamental en la ejecución de esta. En un mundo tan competitivo como el actual, las empresas que sean capaces de crear más valor para el cliente y de hacer rentable esa relación son las que generarán más riqueza, empleo y también las capaces de competir con éxito en sus mercados. El objetivo de este curso es aportar una introducción al marketing estratégico. Estudiaremos las distintas fases del proceso de planificación de marketing, con especial énfasis en el llamado marketing mix y en la importancia de sostener el valor en el tiempo.
