Machine-translated · View original
This clinical epidemiology lab answers questions from the clinical setting using patients' voices and data.

AboutAbout the lab
Turning clinical questions into evidence.
The lab conducts clinical epidemiology research to resolve questions about medicine and health, including those that healthcare professionals come to have while working with patients.
In particular, the lab studies health status based on the subjective views of patients and residents, such as health-related quality of life (QoL), and generates evidence that helps solve problems in medicine and society.
The lab also places importance on research that measures and closes the gap between this evidence and actual medical and social practice.
The lab also takes part in running the MCR (Master of Clinical Research) course, a one-year program that trains clinical researchers from among physicians and dentists.
