Epidemiology and Social Medicine has a broad and complementary research profile including both epidemiologic and qualitative methods.

Our aims to increase our knowledge about the causes of the uneven distribution of health in different social groups and how these differences can be prevented, with a lifecourse perspective. We are also responsible for undergraduate and postgraduate educational programs within public health, medicine and pharmacy.
