Description
This course is comprised of three modules. During the first week, we review the current evidence on cardiovascular disease prevention by focusing on environmental, nutritional, psychosocial and physiological risk factors. The second week focuses on methods and study designs including observational studies (cross-sectional, cohort and case-control) and randomized trials. In the final week, we cover risk prediction models, cost-effectiveness modeling and intervention/policy analysis. At the end of the course, the students will be able to critically evaluate the evidence on CVD prevention in global populations.
