About the Course

Visualisation is a rapidly progressive specialty in academia, research and industry, and becoming the future of science. With the advancement of digital technologies and their applications, biomedical visualisation is an evolving and popular field. With new techniques and technologies to image, process and analyse data related to the human body, and its biological processes, it is at the forefront of the digital revolution. Why not view our course trailer video. Copy and paste this link into your browser https://youtu.be/vB_QcIVSiTs By the end of this course, you will be able to: Define and describe anatomical terminology related to the human body. Describe the various body systems, what comprises them, and how they relate to function. Create your own 3D modelling and animations using industry standard, open-source software (Blender). Analyse various visualisation techniques and methods, and be able to apply them to areas of biomedical science. This course is the first of its kind on Coursera. It explores the structure and function of the human body including terminology used. It showcases visualisation techniques available using technology to image and display data related to the body and biological processes.. It also provides training in the creation of animations, and examines the applicability of different types of reality. You will learn from experts in these fields and with the knowledge you will gain from this course, be able to evaluate and apply how best to use visualisation in your own discipline. No prior experience is necessary but should be able to learn at an intermediate level....

Biomedical Visualisation course was very helpful towards my recent bachelors degree. It really taught me VR, Blender software and many more skills which are important to Biomedical Engineering.

THIS COURSE IS SO MUCH INFORMATIVE .IT GIVES THE FULFILLEMENT AND SATISFACTION IN 3D MODELLING AND ANIMATION.THE LIGHT ON AUGUMENTED AND VIRTUAL REALITY MAKE ME MOTIVATED TO LEARN FURTHER.

The course is well defined as per the description given however it felt like a basic course rather than intermediate. It was very interesting to explore different fields in visualisation. I wish there was more content regarding biomedical visualisation that should've been explained rather than just giving a bunch of research papers to read on. Also, a few more videos on using blender would've been great.

This was indeed an awesome course beyond my field. I never knew this field could revolutionise the field of biomedical science so much. I am glad I took this course. I came to know so much about modelling through Blender. I was actually thinking of learning Blender from YT but this course offered me a lot. Thank you the University of Glasgow for such an awesome course. In the near future, I wish to experience 'reality beyond the real world' in your institute facility. Thank you once again.

This was a rollercoaster ride, honestly. The weeks differ in quality to a bewildering extent, with week 1 being a mellow start that almost made me question my enrollment, Week 2 (Hands on with Blender), Week 3 's recordings and some of Week 4's writings being peak experience, and everything else, regrettably, being either okay to genuinely bad.

Case in point: The first time you see that there's a 1 hour long Keynote speech and a 37 minute podcast, you might do what I did and groan. But now that I am done with the course, I wish those had been longer.

I've never done a course that left me feeling so... simultaneously pumped and unsatisfied! At the end of the course, Dr. Paul has a bit where he talks about the MSc in Visualization and Human Anatomy, and the structure of that course would lend itself incredibly well to a specialization here on Coursera.

Course 1 - Anatomy (an expanded version of Week 1)

Course 2 - Visualization technology (expanding the hands on Blender experience of Week 2)

Course 3 - All the AR and VR stuff from the remaining 2 weeks with less articles (or more expert summaries)

Course 4 - An actual project to make an animation / app with what we learned in Course 1 and 2. This should be trivial to accomplish by making us build up to it from the previous courses.

Pipe dreams perhaps, but hey, I can't be the only one looking up random articles on VR and prowling around on the University of Glasgow's Sketchfab page at this point.

Overall, I highly recommend this course just because it is very intellectually stimulating, but I'd love to see more of this!

THIS SESSION IS SO INFORMATIVE.THE LOGICTICS AND LECTURES ARE MUCH ENOUGH TO LEARN.THE LIGHT UP ON AUGUMENTED AND VIRTUAL REALITY MAKE ME MOTIVATED FOR FURTHER LEARNING ON THAT.

A mixed bag that seems to have been thrown together by committee from existing resources. Definitely some useful information and I don't regret signing up but I'd feel miffed if I'd paid for it. It's a missed opportunity given the absence of this type of course generally.

I'm not sure how useful the intro to blender is: for people who want to learn modelling it doesn't even scratch the surface, but for people who don't it's a very steep learning curve to a very limited endpoint. There are countless introductions to blender tutorials (including in coursera) that would be much more useful for an aspiring biomedical modeller.

One of the videos is unwatchable due to the size being set incorrectly, something that's has been flagged numerous times in the forum but not fixed.

Its a very good course, it introduced me and motivated me into search more about this topic, and maybe, in a future make my medical specialization about it. Biomedical Visualization is the best thing that a MD (or every health care professional) that is passionate about arts, creativity and problem solving can do. The only thing that is stoping me to take a flight from Chile to Glasgow to do the biomedical visualization master degree is the money (and maybe COVID19). Thanks!!

This course is very useful to me as a biomedical student ,it has taught me about how to visualize the anatomical , cellular etc using technologies where it is impossible to one to view it in real life. this course has provided the importance immersive environments and their role in biomedical visualization . I'm thankful to university of Glasgow and the professors for giving this wonderful knowledge
