Population Health Sciences

Key facts

Many Population Health Science members are also affiliated with the MRC Integrated Epidemiology Unit (IEU).

The department is multidisciplinary and includes statisticians, epidemiologists, geneticists, sociologists, psychologists, anthropologists, health economists, public health physicians, medical ethicists, data scientists, neuroscientists, and various community-based physicians and nurses. We are keen to attract graduates from all these disciplines to carry out postgraduate research.

University of Bristol's Population Health Sciences programme will teach you more about this topic.
