With this sentence, the famous epidemiologist Professor Olli S. Miettinen began his personal re ection on the future of the epidemiology [1]. He sought to highlight the fact that the role of the epidemiologist should be mainly focused on aetiological research. Nevertheless, the widespread idea still exists that epidemiology is limited to purely providing gures and descriptive data on the frequency and distribution of disease. Indeed, it is more than likely that the precise aim of those rst classic epidemiological steps, i. e. , methods essentially based on describing the distri- tion of a given disease, is still not all that well understood by many scientists, let alone the general public. Such descriptions seek to generate hypotheses and afford explanations for key factors (be these risk factors or the presumable causes th- selves), which might justify differences in terms of persons, time or place and, in turn, ultimately serve to develop preventive measures and/or gain quality-adjust | | 出版日期 | Book 2010Latest edition | | 关键词 | Biobank; Epidemiologic Research; Health Economics; Human Genetic; Orphan Drugs; Public Health; Rare Diseas | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-90-481-9485-8 | | issn_series | 0065-2598 | | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media B.V. 2010 |
