Division of Epidemiology and Health Services Research
Welcome to the website of the Division of Epidemiology and Health Services Research!
Epidemiology deals with the distribution and causes of disease in a population, while health services research deals with actors, structures and effects of health care. Our research can therefore include medical, social, economic and legal aspects.
Our team has specific expertise and projects in terms of quality of life for cancer patients, psychotherapeutic care, systematic literature search, and environmental and occupational epidemiology. You can find information about our projects here.
