    I am a PhD student in Biomedical Engineering with a specialization in clinical engineering. I found this Stanford course very interesting for how it deals with a little discussed topic such as the treatment of patients in the health sector and the choices that they must make.

    I learnt so much as regards health systems. I would urge health professionals to take that course as well as patients and the general public so our health sector can be much better and effective.

The partnership in the medical research enterprise can improve the work of researchers and the lives of patients. I'm a student of medicine and surgery at university in the U.K., this course is interesting but in some point is repetetive. In the complex is a course done well.
