Palliative Care Capstone Projects
In the Capstone Course you have the opportunity to put what you have been learning about in the Palliative Care Specialization into practice. Our team has created five activities that directly relate to what you have been learning in the course. You will need to talk with someone you know, perhaps a friend or family member, about their experiences living with serious and life limiting illness. You may want to engage several people as you go through the 5 assignments as they each will have unique experiences. The Five Assignments: 1) Use the Nature of Suffering Evaluation Form to guide your conversation with someone living with serious illness and report and reflect on how this illness is impacting different aspects of their lives. 2) Using SNAP/Self-Awareness skills explore the values of someone close to you and your own values as relate to health, illness and dying. 3) Using the WILDA tool complete a pain assessment with someone living with serious illness. 4) Using the ESAS tool complete a physical symptom assessment with someone living with serious illness. 5) Have a conversation with someone you know about Advance Care Planning. In the assignment you will focus on who would be the person that they would want to speak for them if they could not speak for themselves, often known as the MDPOA. When you successfully complete all 5 of these assignments and the other course work you will earn the Coursera Specialization Certificate in Palliative Care. More importantly you will be prepared to help others live well with serious and life-limiting disease.

Càlcul en diverses variables
“Càlcul diferencial en diverses variables” és un breu curs introductori al càlcul diferencial en diverses variables. A l’estudiar problemes bàsics de les Ciències apareixen funcions de diverses variables. Per exemple, la temperatura d’un punt de l’aire depèn de la posició (tres coordenades reals) i del temps (una quarta variable real). La velocitat d’un mòbil a l’espai és un vector amb tres coordenades que depèn de la posició i del temps. Si ja heu seguit un curs de càlcul diferencial en una variable el nostre curs us pot servir per a començar a entendre les dificultats inherents al món de les diverses variables. Si esteu seguint ja un curs presencial sobre el tema el nostre curs us pot servir com a reforç i com a complement. Al final del curs entendreu la noció de funció diferenciable, de derivada parcial, de gradient, sabreu com es troben els extrems (màxim i mínim) locals d’una funció de diverses variables, tant en el cas lliure com en el condicionat. En el cas d’extrems condicionats sabreu el paper que juga la condició de Lagrange i com s’utilitza. Sabreu en quins casos es pot trobar una funció implícita a partir d’una equació al pla o a l’espai. Pel camí haureu tingut un primer contacte amb la topologia de l’espai euclidià n-dimensional, la noció de límit i de compacitat.

Population Health: Study Design
Health care professionals increasingly have to make clinical decisions in aging and diverse populations. Also, they have to deal with rising health care costs, fragmented health care supply and advancing medical technologies and IT systems. These developments go beyond every day practice and will require new skills. In this course we will walk you through key steps in designing a research study, from formulating the research question to common pitfalls you might encounter when interpreting your results. We will focus primarily on analytical studies used in etiological research, which aims to investigate the causal relationship between putative risk factors (or determinants) and a given disease or other outcome. However, the principles we will discuss hold true for most research questions, and you will also encounter these study designs in prognostic and diagnostic research settings. This course is part of a Master's program Population Health Management at Leiden University (currently in development), which includes nine courses on Coursera (including this one). If you are interested in learning more about the Population Health Management approach follow the course "Population Health: Fundamentals of Population Health Management" on Coursera.

Estadística aplicada a los negocios
La toma de decisiones está en la esencia de los negocios. Gerenciar es tomar decisiones, muchas veces bajo presión, con información desordenada y en un contexto de incertidumbre. Un aspecto básico es entender y analizar la información, organizar los datos de forma de facilitar su posterior uso y la toma de decisiones. Si bien hay muchas otras dimensiones que entran en juego, el primer paso es formular bien el problema, estructurarlo y procesar la información. En este sentido, el principal objetivo de este curso es ayudarlo a ser un mejor tomador de decisiones a través de herramientas técnicas. A lo largo de este curso el alumno desarrollará habilidades cuantitativas para la toma de decisiones, a través del aprendizaje de métodos estadísticos con aplicaciones a los negocios en Excel. El foco está en la comprensión y en el uso de herramientas básicas de análisis e inferencia estadística tratando de que el alumno sea un usuario de estos métodos, comprenda en qué consisten, cuál es la intuición, su uso y aplicaciones.

Python Cryptography: Analyze & Break Ciphers
Learners will analyze classical ciphers, apply Python programming to cryptographic challenges, and evaluate cipher vulnerabilities through hands-on hacking exercises. By the end of the course, they will be able to design cryptographic utilities, demonstrate brute-force and frequency analysis techniques, and solve real cipher challenges using modular arithmetic and Python logic. This intermediate-level course builds directly on Python Hacking fundamentals, guiding learners from coding essentials to practical cipher cracking. Students begin by strengthening programming foundations—creating utilities, handling strings, and managing files—before applying mathematical concepts like the Greatest Common Divisor (GCD) and modular inverses to break multiplicative and affine ciphers. Finally, learners will tackle substitution cipher secrets, leveraging digraphs, trigraphs, and word-pattern analysis. What makes this course unique is its blend of theory and hands-on practice. Instead of abstract explanations, every concept is implemented in Python step by step, ensuring learners gain both practical coding skills and cryptographic insight. With quizzes, graded exercises, and structured modules, this course transforms abstract cryptography into applied problem-solving—ideal for aspiring cybersecurity professionals, ethical hackers, and Python enthusiasts looking to level up their skills.
