   I respectfully disagree. A PhD is to apply knowledge you already know. If you want to go the academic route, go for a Masters. That's what you use to learn. I have a PhD in CompSci, and I can tell you, that's NOT the path to follow to learn a subject.

   Now, if you want to go the independent learning route, I can recommend the Udemy course: https://www.udemy.com/course/python-for-data-science-and-mac... It will give you a good hands on overview of all the current topics in Machine Learning.

   You first will be learning to USE ML methods, then you can start extending the ML field itself (if you want).

   I'm in a similar boat, and that repo looks very useful! Thanks.

   If you're at all into Python or R I'd suggest Jose Portilla's courses on Udemy as well, they're very good at covering the applied aspects.
