Description
This Matlab course will help you to get started in your career as a student, researcher or scientist working with Matlab. Whether you need to pass an exam or apply data analysis on behavioral or physiological data, this course is definitely made for you. You will master the basics of Matlab in no time. You will be able to automate repetetive tasks and visualize your data in less than two hours. Very concise videos make it possible.
To introduce myself: I am a researcher myself (PhD student in sleep research, nice to meet you), who has worked and taught Matlab for more than 3 years now. I have realized how important it is to master Matlab to analyse your data yourself. Especially as a person completely new to programming, learning Matlab can be a quite exhausting experience. In this course, however, you will learn from application-based material, which is both concise and fun. I created this online course so that your Matlab journey is both as smooth and delightful as possible.
So have a nice trip, let me guide you through Matlab wonderland and enjoy the ride!
P.S.: This course will be continously improved with the feedback you give. I'm sure I can still learn a lot in respect to producing high-quality videos. As your enrollment guarantees access for all your life, you will benefit from it yourself, as well.

Sven Leach
PhD student in sleep research
My name is Sven Leach, a neurocognitive psychologist (M. Sc.) by training, who recently started his PhD in sleep research in Switzerland. I am in love with the idea to communicate science to the people. On udemy I decided to create an online tutorial for Matlab, a very common software in science to analyze data.

The course is great if you are a very beginner in MATLAB. I believe that the name should not specify "for scientists", because it is not explaning things like data analisys or statistic functions included in the program. Yet the explanations fot the actual content is pretty good. Hope that this course will be updated with actual exercices to encourage users to learn more by theirselves.

I needed headphones to get volume correct. I wish this lesson included a quick idea for changing the bar graph to better display the data, there should be a "try this" section at the end of each lesson to verify students can perform key tasks

its difficult to focus too much on this small font size; it should have been 16 or 18 for teaching purpose
