Training in Infectious Disease Epidemiology through the Emerging Infections Program Sites
One objective of the Emerging Infections Program (EIP) of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is to provide training opportunities in infectious disease epidemiology. To determine the extent of training performed since the program's inception in 1995, we reviewed training efforts at the 10 EIP sites. By 2015, all sites hosted trainees (most were graduate public health students and...

متن کاملInfectious Disease Epidemiology.
Both authors were introduced to infectious disease epidemiology by Alexander D. Langmuir, and he taught us the principles of this field by example. We came to the Communicable Disease Center (now the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)) directly out of clinical training with absolutely no formal training in public health or epidemiology. Perhaps this was a fortunate happenstance; i...
متن کاملSeasonal infectious disease epidemiology.
Seasonal change in the incidence of infectious diseases is a common phenomenon in both temperate and tropical climates. However, the mechanisms responsible for seasonal disease incidence, and the epidemiological consequences of seasonality, are poorly understood with rare exception. Standard epidemiological theory and concepts such as the basic reproductive number R0 no longer apply, and the im...
