该课程名为《公共卫生专业的流行病学》，旨在教授学生解读流行病学研究的重要技能。这些研究能够深刻影响我们的生活方式，例如饮食、锻炼、居住地和疾病治疗的选择。 课程分为三个部分： 1. **流行病学中的疾病测量**：重点介绍流行病学中所用的主要测量方法，如何利用这些数据为公共卫生政策、筛查和预防决策提供依据。 2. **流行病学研究设计**：概述常见的研究设计类型，以及各自的优势和局限性，帮助学生选择合适的研究设计。 3. **流行病学的有效性和偏见**：讨论研究结果受偏见和混淆影响的方式，并提供防控偏见的技能与因果关系的批判性思维。 完成该专业课程后，学员将掌握设计和评估流行病学研究的基本技能，并可进一步深造流行病学相关课程。该专业课程可独立于GMPH计划进行学习。

Thousands of new epidemiological studies are conducted every year and their results can have a profound impact on how we live our lives. Decisions regarding the food you eat, how much you exercise, where you live and what treatment you will follow if you get sick are made based on data from such studies. This specialization aims to equip you with the skills that will allow you to correctly interpret epidemiological research, consider its limitations, and design your own studies. The first course of the specialisation, Measuring Disease in Epidemiology, looks into the main measures used in epidemiology and how these can inform decisions around public health policy, screening and prevention. The second course, Study Designs in Epidemiology, provides an overview of the most common study designs, their strengths and limitations. The third course, Validity and Bias in Epidemiology, builds on the fundamental concepts taught in the previous courses to discuss bias and confounding and how they might affect study results. It also provides the essential skills to prevent and control bias and confounding and critically think about causality. At the end of this specialization you will have gained the essential skills to design and critique epidemiological research and you will be able to pursue more advanced courses in epidemiology. Although this specialization is part of the GMPH programme, it can be taken independently of the GMPH.
公共卫生专业的流行病学：每年进行成千上万的新流行病学研究，其结果可能对我们的生活产生深远影响。根据此类研究的数据，做出有关饮食，运动量，住所以及生病后应采取的治疗措施的决定。该专业旨在为您提供技能，使您能够正确解释流行病学研究，考虑其局限性并设计自己的研究。 该专业的第一门课程是“流行病学中的疾病测量”，探讨流行病学中使用的主要措施以及这些措施如何为围绕公共卫生政策，筛查和预防的决策提供依据。 第二门课程是《流行病学研究设计》，概述了最常见的研究设计及其优势和局限性。 第三门课程是《流行病学的有效性和偏见》，它建立在之前课程中讲授的基本概念的基础上，以讨论偏见和混淆以及它们如何影响研究结果。它还提供了预防和控制偏见，混淆以及因果关系批判性思考的基本技能。 在本专业课程结束时，您将获得设计和批判流行病学研究的基本技能，并且可以继续学习流行病学的高级课程。尽管此专业是GMPH计划的一部分，但可以独立于GMPH进行。
