Understanding Prostate Cancer
Welcome to Understanding Prostate Cancer. My name is Ken Pienta, Professor of Urology and Oncology at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine. I have been studying prostate cancer and treating patients with prostate cancer for over 25 years. Over 1,000,000 men worldwide and 230,000 men in the United States are diagnosed with prostate cancer every year. Three hundred thousand men worldwide and 30,000 men in the US are dying from prostate cancer every year. As people live longer, the incidence of prostate cancer is rising worldwide and prostate cancer continues to be a major health problem. Thanks to years of dedication and commitment to research we’ve made enormous advances in the treatment of prostate cancer, But there is still a lot of work to be done. In this Understanding Prostate Cancer course, I will provide an introduction to the biology of prostate cancer as well as how it is identified and treated at various stages of the disease. I've put together this course in order to introduce you to the essentials of prostate cancer. By the time you finish this course you'll be able to Define risk factors for prostate cancer Understand current prostate cancer screening guidelines Understand prostate cancer staging Understand treatments for localized prostate cancer Understand treatments for advanced prostate cancer Understand treatments to alleviate the symptoms caused by prostate cancer This Understanding Prostate Cancer Course should be helpful to anyone who wants to develop a deeper understanding of prostate cancer biology and treatment. It should be useful to students who are interested in a deeper understanding of the science of cancer. It should also be helpful to health care providers, data managers, and educators who wish to develop a better understanding of prostate cancer and how it affects individuals. The course is not designed for patients seeking treatment guidance. For those of you who might be thinking about a career in cancer research or patient care, I hope this course will inspire you to pursue that path! The course is divided into five modules organized to facilitate learning. I'm glad that you decided to join this course. I hope that you will develop a basic understanding of prostate cancer. I hope that it will help you in whatever field you work. If you are a student, I hope that what you learn here will help you begin a career in cancer biology research and contribute to the worldwide effort to save lives.

Ciencia de Datos Aplicada al Marketing
Históricamente, las matemáticas nacieron por primera vez, debido a la necesidad de entender nuestro entorno y tomar decisiones. En particular, la ciencia de datos (data science), se enfoca en el procesamiento de datos: analizar, explorar e interpretar conjuntos de datos, y con base en ello, tener un panorama completo del presente. Al escuchar sobre la ciencia de los datos, se podría pensar que es un tema únicamente relacionado con los científicos de datos y el big data, dirigido a personas que hablan lenguajes de programación como python o que concierne solo a empresas de base tecnológica e inteligencia artificial como IBM o Amazon. Sin embargo, cada vez más, es necesario hacer uso de la inteligencia de negocios y por medio de la minería de datos obtener resultados para una mejor toma de decisiones sin importar el giro de la empresa. Considerando que la mercadotecnia tiene entre sus objetivos la identificación de necesidades y preferencias de los consumidores para satisfacer sus necesidades, aprender a realizar encuestas que reúnan datos y conocer las herramientas de análisis de datos idóneas para grandes cantidades de datos, se convierte imprescindible para el crecimiento de toda empresa o negocio. Sin necesidad de ser un experto en data science o programador, actualmente existen una serie de técnicas estadísticas que pueden ser utilizadas por un marketer, como excel y spss, y estas le permitirán realizar data mining o extracción de datos, para identificar las variables importantes de un producto, clasificar a los consumidores, organizar sus gustos y en general, tomar decisiones precisas con una base matemática a problemas complejos. Este curso se encuentra enfocado en su totalidad al estudio de mercado, desde los ejemplos hasta las técnicas de análisis estadístico seleccionadas, tanto para pequeños como grandes volúmenes. Utilizando softwares estadísticos para realizar el proceso matemático en las bases de datos y la visualización de datos, permitiendo un enfoque interpretativo de los resultados para la toma de decisiones. Utiliza el business intelligence a tu favor y adquiere las herramientas necesarias para llevar el marketing de tu empresa o negocio al siguiente nivel y realizar una toma de decisiones acertada.

Data and Health Indicators in Public Health Practice
Epidemiology is often described as the cornerstone science in public health. Epidemiology in public health practice uses study design and analyses to identify causes in an outbreak situation, guides interventions to improve population health, and evaluates programs and policies. In this course, we'll define the role of the professional epidemiologist as it relates to public health services, functions, and competencies. With that foundation in mind, we'll introduce you to the problem solving methodology and demonstrate how it can be used in a wide variety of settings to identify problems, propose solutions, and evaluate interventions. This methodology depends on the use of reliable data, so we'll take a deep dive into the routine and public health data systems that lie at the heart of epidemiology and then conclude with how you can use that data to calculate measures of disease burden in populations.
