Over 500,000 people in the United States and over 8 million people worldwide are dying from cancer every year. As people live longer, the incidence of cancer is rising worldwide, and the disease is expected to strike over 20 million people annually by 2030.

History and Overview of Metastasis
In this first module, we'll concentrate on the history and overview of metastasis and give you a flavor of how cancer is defined as well as some of the history surrounding how we began to understand metastasis.

Primary Tumor Growth and Neoangiogenesis
In this module, we'll focus on uncontrolled cell division, which is a defining property of cancer, as well as mutation and neoangiogenesis and their roles in tumor formation. We'll also take a look at a primary tumor microenvironment and its component cell types.

A big thanks to John Hopkins University for this course the faculty of this university is one of the best faculty i have ever seen all things are much clear and confidential. Once again Thanks.

Good course, but why researchers whant to hold/control cancer in a human and not rebuild the destroyed mechanisms of autoregul;ation by genetic engeneering for example? That would be true cure.
由 RW 提供2018年6月3日
It is a beautifully designed course. it never gets boring. The best part is that you can learn at your own pace. Thank you all the instructors and Coursera for making the content available.

It's a Wonderful course and it has helped me gain knowledge and clear my concepts regarding cancer and metastasis. I would love to join more courses like this and enhance my knowledge.
常見問題
我什么时候能够访问课程视频和作业？
讲座和作业的访问权限取决于您的注册类型。如果您以旁听模式参加课程，则可以免费查看大多数课程资料。要访问评分作业并获得证书，您需要在旁听期间或之后购买证书体验。如果看不到旁听选项：
- 课程可能不提供旁听选项。您可以尝试免费试用，也可以申请助学金。
- 课程可能会改为提供'完整课程，没有证书'。通过此选项，您可以查看所有课程材料、提交所要求的作业，以及获得最终成绩。这也意味着您将无法购买证书体验。
我购买证书后会得到什么？
您购买证书后，将有权访问所有课程材料，包括评分作业。完成课程后，您的电子课程证书将添加到您的成就页中，您可以通过该页打印您的课程证书或将其添加到您的领英档案中。如果您只想阅读和查看课程内容，可以免费旁听课程。
Is financial aid available?
是的，Coursera 可以向无法承担学费的学生提供助学金。点击左侧‘注册’按钮下的‘助学金’链接即可申请助学金。您可以根据屏幕提示完成申请，申请获批后会收到通知。了解详情。
