International Course in Nutritional Epidemiology (2nd ed) 2010

London, United Kingdom
This advanced and interactive course aims to give you a solid grounding in the knowledge and skills that are required to work as a nutritional epidemiologist. Participants are expected to have postgraduate level experience (MSC or PHD) in epidemiology.
The course will consist of lectures, computer tutorials, debates and discussions with experts and a small group assignment, with particular focus on current controversies in the field.
We will place strong emphasis on assessment of exposure (to include diet, body size, and physical activity), methodological considerations in study design, and pertinent statistical issues, including how best to address measurement error and adjust for total energy intake.
You will learn to critically interpret results from nutritional epidemiological studies and evaluate the association between a given nutritional factor and disease. Current priorities in nutritional epidemiology, its future potential and challenges will be discussed. We will also address the translation of scientific findings into nutritional recommendations and policies.
Some of the themes and issues you learn about will be further explored in the subsequent World Cancer Research Fund International (WCRF International) 2-day conference, covering both the science and policy aspects of nutrition, physical activity and cancer prevention.
