I just got to know your channel by watching two videos of your epidemiology and biostatistics playlist and I can't wait to watch all you the videos of this channel as you are explaining epidemiology concepts amazingly!!! 😳😍Please keep up your amazing work and please make more FREE videos for medical students who can't afford even low membership prices🙏

[hansbleuer]

Danke.
Ein didaktisch meisterhaft gestaltetes Video.
Im Hintergrund lauernde, für einen Überblick nicht nötige aber zentrale Fragen, werden elegant umschifft.
Spannend aufbereitet und komponiert in Form einer ganzheitlichen Geschichte.
Ich ziehe den Hut vor Ihnen.

[desirablewoman]

Thank you for the lecture. Please I have a question. I just watched a CDC lecture on epidemiology and was taught that Descriptive and analytical epidemiology are the two types of observational epidemiology. Whereas, you teach that Observational and Experimental epidemiology are the two types of Analytical epidemiology. I'm learning epidemiology for the first time and the contradictions are making it confusing, could you please help me understand?
