Dear all,
I'm a student who wanna study stuff about Pharmacometrics badly. In the
past 2 yrs i tried to learn some basic knowledge about Pharmacometrics but
unfortunately its not that much free materials available in the internet.
Some professors advised me learn stuff like R, SPSS etc at first. But I
have to say only book is kind of boring and as a NON-English speaker is
worse cuz i have to check dictionary many time and sometimes have to go to
library searching books cuz the professional words can't be found in
dictionary.
First of all this is not an advertisement :)
So far, coursera provide an opportunity for us to learn various high
quality courses online n for free. https://www.coursera.org/#
it also supply a forum in each course where students around the whole world
can discuss things if they don't understand. This is awesome. By the way, I
already learned Fundamentals of Pharmacology and now statistics one in
coursera, i have to say I earn a lot from that.
But the course statistics one is basic on R and focuses on psych, I hope in
the future a course basic on Pharmacometrics/Pharmacokinetics /Pharmacology
can be available in coursera. One more thing is, so far NONMEM is not a
free source like R, I wonder if some professors are interested in this who
can except supply the statistics class but also teach some software similar
to NONMEM in the open video class, like MONOLIX cuz it is definitely hard
to teach myself NM and stuff like that. Really hope this will come true
soon.
Best regards,
Ziya
