Methodological issues in epidemiology and population research

The EpiHealth seminar series addresses current challenges and advances in research design, data analysis, and interpretation within epidemiology, clinical studies, and population sciences. It is the continuation of the LUPOP seminar previously held at the Tornblad institute.

The series is aimed at researchers, PhD students, clinicians, biostatisticians, and public health professionals who are engaged in or interested in methodological aspects of epidemiological and population-based research.
