The future of epidemiology: methodological challenges and multilevel inference.

Bundesgesundheitsblatt, Gesundheitsforschung, Gesundheitsschutz - 1 Jul 2006

Duell Eric J

Abstract excerpt

A decade ago there was considerable debate about the appropriate objectives and paradigms of modern epidemiologic research. One concern put forth in these debates was that "risk factor epidemiology" might be forcing our field to focus more on individuals and less on populations and public health. Today, most epidemiologists acknowledge that public health is influenced by both population-level and individual-level...
