课程名称：流行病学：公共卫生的基础科学 课程概述：流行病学常被称为公共卫生的“基石”，它是研究疾病、健康状况或事件在不同人群中的分布和决定因素，并将这一研究应用于控制健康问题。通过本课程所学概念的应用，学生将对流行病学的实践有更深刻的理解，并能更好地欣赏公共卫生项目和政策。本课程将通过流行病学的视角探索心血管疾病和传染病等公共卫生问题，涵盖本地和全球的相关议题。 课程大纲： 1. 课程介绍，流行病学的历史与研究 - 本模块介绍流行病学的历史和领域。 2. 疾病频率的测量 - 本模块介绍疾病频率的测量方法。 3. 研究设计 - 本模块介绍以下研究设计：实验性研究、队列研究、病例对照研究、横断面研究和生态学研究。 4. 关联性测量 - 本模块介绍关联性测量和置信区间的概念。 5. 因果关系 - 本模块介绍因果关系的相关知识。 6. 课程总结 - 本模块为课程作总结。 本课程通过分析当今公共卫生问题，帮助学生理解流行病学的实际应用，增强其对公共卫生工作的认知和理解。

Often called “the cornerstone” of public health, epidemiology is the study of the distribution and determinants of diseases, health conditions, or events among populations and the application of that study to control health problems. By applying the concepts learned in this course to current public health problems and issues, students will understand the practice of epidemiology as it relates to real life and makes for a better appreciation of public health programs and policies. This course explores public health issues like cardiovascular and infectious diseases – both locally and globally – through the lens of epidemiology.
