Pharmacoepidemiology

RESEARCH THEMES

Pharmacoepidemiology

Therapeutics research and education are key activities in the department, which is home to the provincially-funded Therapeutics Initiative (TI). Therapeutics researchers conduct systematic reviews of clinical trials and pharmacoepidemiologic studies of drug safety using large health care databases. Therapeutics educators translate the complicated and detailed output from drug safety and effectiveness research into brief, simple and practical messages for clinicians. Therapeutics is a multidisciplinary field requiring expertise in medicine, epidemiology, biostatistics and knowledge translation.
