Epidemiology studies the frequency of disease occurrences in different population groups and the reasons why they happen. It’s a vital science that helps us identify the risk factors of diseases and design strategies to prevent and combat them. It is also crucial for monitoring the health of populations during epidemics.
Good epidemiological research papers can have a significant impact on public health policy. When it comes to topics, epidemiology has a lot to offer. You may study infectious or chronic diseases, occupational hazards, environmental health, or other issues. Epidemiology also uses different study designs, from observational studies to experimental trials.
