流行病学理学硕士-心血管和临床流行病学

本专题着重于将严格的流行病学方法应用于临床和转化研究，重点是心血管疾病。临床和转化研究涵盖了广泛的研究领域，包括：<br>以患者为中心的研究<br>流行病学和行为研究<br>临床试验<br>健康服务和结果研究<br>心血管和临床流行病学的追踪目标培养富有创造力且独立的研究人员，他们将能够与基准科学家和应用科学家进行有效合作，以改善临床和人群水平的疾病预防和治疗。课程和指导工作强调在临床和转化研究中使用流行病学方法，以及在心血管疾病流行病学方面进行跨学科培训。
This track focuses on the use of rigorous epidemiologic methods as applied to clinical and translational research, with emphasis on cardiovascular disease.Clinical and translational research encompasses a broad area of investigations that includes:<br>Patient-oriented research<br>Epidemiology and behavioral studies<br>Clinical trials<br>Health services and outcomes research<br>The Cardiovascular and Clinical Epidemiology track aims to develop creative and independent investigators who will be able to collaborate effectively with bench and applied scientists to improve disease prevention and treatment at both the clinical and population levels. Students engage in coursework and research applicable to the entire continuum of cardiovascular and clinical epidemiology prevention and screening, diagnosis, treatment, disease management, and prognostication. Prior students, for example, have engaged in natural history studies, cohort studies, translational research studies, clinical trials, and meta-analyses. Coursework and mentorship emphasize the use of epidemiologic methods in clinical and translational research, as well as interdisciplinary training on the epidemiology of cardiovascular disease.<br>The track includes two groups of students those with a focus on cardiovascular disease epidemiology and those with a focus on clinical epidemiology. The track is geared toward students, including both research-oriented clinicians and non-clinicians, who seek to apply rigorous epidemiologic methods to strengthen clinical practice, advance the health of people, and improve the health of populations.
