Healthcare and Medical
Epidemiology is the study of how diseases and health conditions spread and are distributed across populations, used to identify causes, risk factors, and effective interventions. Epidemiologists work for public health agencies, hospitals, and research institutions, analyzing data to track outbreaks, evaluate treatments, and inform health policy. The field gained heightened public visibility during the COVID-19 pandemic through its role in modeling disease transmission.
