Very well done and informative. I truly appreciate the Drug process in entirety being broken down into sections that are easy to comprehend. It is obvious the speakers were chosen for their knowledge.
This course helps to understand the basic fundamental & principles of drug discovery clearly. I am very thankful to the Coursera and University of California San Diego for providing this course to me.

•It is very helpful course to know about drug synthesis and challenges faced by pharmaceutical companies , finally the amount of work done by researchers to synthesise medicine effective for particular cause and the effort to cross the hurdles in their research
par Blesson J
•This has been a nice course overall! Only thing I wished it had was more information on biologics drug discovery as that is the area I was interested in overall. Still very happy with it and look forward to completing the other courses in the series.
par Fernando L
•It is a good course, but I do not consider it to be a basic one. In particular, in week 2 and 3 it gets very technical. Additionally, it should start with the very last lecture of week 3 to make a better introduction to the concepts

•i can learn many topics fom your presentations and thanks to uc san diego unviersiy and also L4G solutions, Coursera for providing this platform to learn and also thanks to the professeres who explain the drug discovery topic to us
par Ricardo V
•Overall it is interesting and sumarizes well some of the key features and concepts in drug discovery. In my opinion it could be longer and some of the slides in week 2 could be better prepared. But overall it was a good course.
par Ann T T
•This course was really helpful for me to understand the different aspects of drug discovery as well as drug delivery.This course of drug discovery really helped me in understanding the technical and scientific angle of study
par Charles B
•A really good course covering the fundamentals. For someone without a background in Pharmaceuticals , chemistry or related subjects some of it was tough to follow at first. But I could understand it by the end of the course
par Manuela C
•A very good course to refresh notions of pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics obtained during my studies. I particularly liked the usage of examples of real drug discovery processess to stress the concepts.
par Anthea W
•This course is accessible to people without a pharma background. And it gives me an interesting, knowledgable introduction to the drug discovery process. Basically, all lecturers did a great job.

•I learned a lot from this course because I have no previous knowledge about this course after doing this I got a knowledge about how drug works in our body and what are the factors influence that
par Lucien P
•This has helped me a long way, and I highly recommend this course to any aspiring student in Pharmaceutical Sciences. It made me understand Drug Discovery, as Chemical Engr Student.
par Tahmidul I A
•This course was absolutely fabulous and highly informative. I suggest anyone who has a knack for drugs and science associated with drugs to take up this course with eyes closed.
par Raizsa S E B
•Videos are just okay while the reading materials are merely the PowerPoint presentations so it's not easy to go back to topics you might have missed or forgotten.
par Sachin
•the course is good , mainly 3rd weeks lecture are more interesting & some informational knowledge about the problems facing during the discovery of a drug
par Kristine M
•It was a decent overview. Parts are very science dense if you don't have a science background. The main issue is that the content is very outdated.
par Arash Y
•This course provided me valuable insights into the whole challenges in drug development and offered simple rules solutions to these problems
par Nancy B
•This course is really beneficial. I got a lot of info. on drug discovery & how it works. I can surely suggest this course to my friends.
par SHAUNAK R 1
•AMAZING. I have immense gratitude for the professors who made these lectures and to VIT Vellore for sponsoring this course for me!
par F. J O
•General view of drug development from the basics of molecular/biological development to pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics.
par Juan C Z M
•Esperaba un curso más enfocado a la parte científica y técnica. Aun así es una buena introducción al mundo de la farmacia.
par Aditya V
•Please mention that a basic understanding of chemistry is absolutely essential as a prerequisite to taking this course.
par Indu S
•Overall it's a nice course but it needs to get latest data on what is going on in pharmaceutical and drug discovery.
par Adrija C
•Amore detailed explanation of contents of week 1 and 2 would have been good. The content of week 3 was very useful.
par Joshua D
•I found this course informative. Might be somewhat challenging to follow without some health sciences background.
par NagaSandhya G
•Ver y useful course to learn the basics of drug discovery. Needs to be updated, most of the slides were outdated.
