Epidemiology is the science of studying and understanding the patterns of disease occurrence in human populations with the ultimate goal of preventing human disease. This course is the second in a two-part sequence. Building off of concepts covered in Foundations of Epidemiology I, it aims to develop an in-depth understanding of population characteristics and disease frequencies, epidemiological study designs, measures of excess risk associated with specific exposures, and inferring causality in exposure-disease relationships.
