In the course you will:

• View articles, presentations, mini-lectures, interviews with experts in the field and links to further reading
• Test your understanding in quizzes

Learning objectives:

By the end of this course you should be able to:

1. Analyse the features of the main epidemiology study types and appraise their application for answering different research questions in eye health.
2. Identify problems caused by bias, confounding and chance in epidemiological studies.

Because the course is designed for self-directed learning, you can work at your own pace and time, repeat or download the content as you wish.  We encourage you to assess your learning through the quizzes. We also hope that you will be able to apply the learning directly to your clinical work, academic reading and research activities.
