Public Health 418 - Chronic Disease Epidemiology

This is a lecture and discussion-based course where a range of topic areas in chronic disease epidemiology (e.g., heart disease, cancer) will be reviewed and discussed. Topics will most often focus on areas of recent interest or where significant differences of opinion related to scientific findings have existed. Substantial time will be devoted to reviewing publications to improve student skill in reading and interpreting epidemiologic literature published in this arena.
