Scope and scope of work

The mission of the Epidemiology R&D group is to improve lifestyle, well-being and health of the (Dutch) population, specifically with respect to cancer-related and perinatal outcomes, through high-quality and innovative epidemiological research and education.

Our research focuses on developing and improving strategies in etiology, prevention, early detection, prognosis, prediction and (quality of) care. We apply both observational and interventional methods. We work multidisciplinary where possible, increasing the chances of (clinical) embedding of the results after a research project.

Our ambition is to teach students, PhD students and other clinical and biomedical researchers state-of-the-art methods of applied medical scientific research and epidemiology. Through education and consultation, we enable students and researchers to conduct and evaluate applied scientific research in a sound manner. In doing so, we contribute to improving the scientific quality of research at Radboudumc and beyond.
