They tell you to build your professional network, in part, so when you go up for promotion, you have people to ask and people to invite you to give talks etc. and I agree. But they don’t tell you that later, if you have a big network, you will be the person asked to do things.

When, in the def of epi, it says study the distribution and determinants of disease “and the application of that knowledge to control of disease.” - does “application” refer to public health action or studying the effects of interventions? Does epi include action or just studying effects of action?

Anyone have a good applied example of use of the target trial framework that prevented a problem that was likely to arise in an observational study not using the framework?

I’m new on here. Are people finding this platform useful? Are enough people on here? Do we think they will be?
