The study of Epidemiology

Epidemiology has grown to be an indispensable asset for researchers, clinicians and practitioners. Far reaching in its impact. It is the foundation of evidence-based medicine for the individual patient and the cornerstone of public health policy for societies.

Epidemiology as a scientific discipline is an excellent option; for the doctor, who wishes to be armed with both biomedical knowledge and statistical wisdom when looking for the right patient care of their individual patient. Also for the public health professional, who faced with global health questions does not wish to lose sight of the impact for the individual. And for the veterinarian who is faced with challenges that play a national role yet must look at the impact on individual cases.
