The Division of Population Health (DPH) includes major research strengths in primary care<br />
and in clinical epidemiology as applied to coronary heart disease, mental health, infectious<br />
diseases, sexual health and HIV. The work attracts major funding from the MRC,<br />
Department of Health, European Union and various research charities. Its academic staff<br />
includes clinicians, epidemiologists, statisticians, health psychologists and sociologists. It<br />
has a major programme of undergraduate teaching and postgraduate taught and research<br />
degree programmes. For all trainees a balanced clinical / educational programme can be<br />
created according to their particular interests, to interface with a range of clinical specialties:<br />
e.g. cardiovascular disease, mental health, elderly care, as well as HIV clinical epidemiology,<br />
infectious diseases and sexually transmitted infections.<br />
The academic options offered in this rotation are in Primary care, Clinical Epidemiology or<br />
Sexual Health.<br />
During the research component of the attachments each trainee will be attached to a<br />
particular research group within the Division, according to interest. Trainees will participate<br />
as a member of the research group, attending project meetings and undertaking research<br />
related tasks, either on externally funded projects, or on projects under development.<br />
Trainees will be exposed to a variety of research methods and have the opportunity for<br />
