FUNDAMENTALS OF EPIDEMIOLOGY
3-6 August 2009, University House, Canberra

The Fundamentals of Epidemiology short course will provide an introduction to epidemiology and biostatistics, using a small group, problem-based learning approach. It will be pitched to those without any previous formal epidemiology training, such as new PhD students, policy makers, clinicians and others seeking to revise their epidemiology skills. The aim will be to provide a firm basic understanding to allow correct interpretation of the research literature or from which to build, with more advanced courses.

If you would like to receive information about any of the courses, as it becomes available, please email nceph_shortcourse@anu.edu.au.
