Q: 1. What topics are covered in this Cancer Biology Specialization?

You'll start with “Introduction to the Biology of Cancer,” exploring fundamental concepts like cancer cell growth, epidemiology, and treatment planning. It includes modules on molecular biology, pathology, and medical imaging. Next comes “Understanding Cancer Metastasis,” focusing on how cancer spreads, the biology behind metastasis, clinical implications, and interventions. Finally, you’ll study “Understanding Prostate Cancer,” which covers risk factors, progression, diagnostic criteria, staging, and treatments specific to prostate cancer. Together, these three courses give you a comprehensive grasp of cancer development—from basic biology to advanced pathology. You'll gain hard skills in areas like oncology, molecular biology, epidemiology, treatment planning, and precision medicine.
