课程名称：流行病学 概述：本课程通过探讨传染病在21世纪的威胁，揭示了人类与微生物之间永恒的斗争。尽管科技取得了显著进步，但传染疾病的威胁依然加剧。课程将帮助我们理解流行病的基本科学原理以及防控公共卫生行动的核心。 课程内容包括以下四个主题： 1. 新型病原体的起源； 2. 传染病传播的分析； 3. 医疗和公共卫生措施以预防和控制流行病； 4. 由公共卫生领域的领先专家进行的小组讨论，分享他们在传染病控制中的风险沟通、危机管理、伦理和公众信任方面的见解。 此外，课程还新增了： - 与世界领先专家的新讨论小组； - 针对应对流行病的新一代信息学的补充模块。 学习成果： - 理解传染病流行的起源、传播及控制； - 认识到有效沟通流行病信息的重要性； - 从全球视野了解与流行病相关的关键当代议题。 课程大纲： - 主题一：起源（流行病的过去、现在与未来） - 主题一：起源（传染病的出现与生态） - 主题一：起源（流行病学侦探：追踪病菌） - 主题二：传播（传染病流行病学） - 主题二：传播（流行病学三角） - 主题二：传播（传染病建模） - 主题三：控制（疾病监测） - 主题三：控制（非药物干预措施） - 主题三：控制（疫苗接种） - 主题四：沟通（传达疾病风险） 通过这些学习，学员将获得关于流行病学的全面知识，理解流行病控制中的复杂性与多样性。

Description:Theme Four Summary
“If history is our guide, we can assume that the battle between the intellect and will of the human species and the extraordinary adaptability of microbes will be never-ending.” (1) Despite all the remarkable technological breakthroughs that we have made over the past few decades, the threat from infectious diseases has significantly accelerated. In this course, we will learn why this is the case by looking at the fundamental scientific principles underlying epidemics and the public health actions behind their prevention and control in the 21st century. This course covers the following four topics: 1. Origins of novel pathogens; 2. Analysis of the spread of infectious diseases; 3. Medical and public health countermeasures to prevent and control epidemics; 4. Panel discussions involving leading public health experts with deep frontline experiences to share their views on risk communication, crisis management, ethics and public trust in the context of infectious disease control. In addition to the original introductory sessions on epidemics, we revamped the course by adding: - new panel discussions with world-leading experts; and - supplementary modules on next generation informatics for combating epidemics. -------------------------------------------------------- (1) Fauci AS, Touchette NA, Folkers GK.
