About

An epidemiologist is a public health professional who studies and analyzes patterns and causes of diseases and injuries in populations. Epidemiologists use scientific methods and statistical analysis to identify and understand the factors that affect health outcomes in a population, and use this information to develop strategies and interventions to prevent or control disease. 

Epidemiology is a field where trained epidemiologists study patterns of frequency and the causes and effects of diseases in human populations. Epidemiology provides the scientific footings for evidence-based medicine and allows placement of strategies for improvement in public health.
