A limited number of scholarships are available for core epidemiology training via an online University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) Epidemiology Methods (EPI-203) course running from September 14th to December 7th, 2022
Instruction will encompass a review of weekly didactic lecture videos, readings, assignments, Journal club discussions and compulsory attendance of weekly group meetings every Wednesday from 2-5 pm.
Ph.D, M.Med, M.Sc, MPH students and faculty interested in core Epidemiology Methods skills have found this most useful. Using practical examples, the course reviews previously learned principles of contemporary epidemiology related to: Study design, Measures of disease occurrence and association; Interaction; Minimizing bias and confounding; and use of more sophisticated regression methods. As such, this is a course most attuned to individuals with prior introduction to Epidemiology Methods and thus is not an introductory course. Participants without introductory Epidemiology training might benefit this course and hence will not be considered.
