Ratings and Reviews for Sleep: Neurobiology, Medicine, and Society

Very interesting and informative!

Excellent

One of the best courses on Coursera and among the best ones that is from the University of Michigan on this platform. More this way!!

Excellent course ! I really enjoyed this course ! All the modules are clear enough to understand the basis of the neurobiology of sleep and to become familiar with basic concepts and mechanisms from neurobiology of sleep and neuroscience. Very Impressed with how detailed and rigorous the course is ! The" honor track" is particularly challenging and fascinating ( especially mathematical modeling of Sleep-Wake Regulation and Molecular biology and Genetics of Sleep) Thank you Professor Ralph Lydic and Helen Baghdoyan !

It was really useful for me to know about the science behind why and how we actually sleep.

An excellent course designed to address real life problems of sleeping disorders. Thank you all!

The content is excellent but this is not intended for "beginners" as advertised. The lectures are very interesting and the overall level is high. You need to have some good knowledge about the structure and the working of the brain or you won't be able to follow the lectures (the level is higher than with most MooC here) The main problem with this MooC though is that there is nothing more than academic lectures. The forum are empty, there is no (sense of) community, this long course (12 weeks) lacks some storytelling linking weeks together, and, worse of all, the quizzes are useless: very short, simplistic, you may even pass guessing the correct answers. Such high level lectures demand for high quality quizzes allowing the students to really test and challenge the acquired knowledge. Quizzes and all sorts of interactive exercises must be included in the experience. If we only get video lectures, why not publish a DVD with a companion book ?

Superior presentation of well organized material.

thank you very much , it was very useful

This is a very good course that bring you an update to the current evidence of sleep and help you to understands the mechanic and purpose of sleep.
