Epidemiologists use various methods to study health-related events:
Descriptive Epidemiology: Involves characterizing the distribution of diseases by time, place, and person. Analytical Epidemiology: Uses comparative studies to determine the causes of diseases and the effectiveness of interventions. Experimental Epidemiology: Involves conducting controlled experiments, such as clinical trials, to test hypotheses. Field Epidemiology: Focuses on investigating health problems in real-world settings.
