The session defines epidemiology and its role in clinical practice, describing the distribution, determinants, and application of health events. It reviews measures of disease frequency and guides participants in selecting appropriate study designs such as cross‑sectional, cohort, case‑control, and randomized trials. Bias, confounding, and effect modification are explained with examples and control strategies. The lecture then walks through the 12‑step outbreak investigation process, including epidemic curves, attack rates, and case classifications, illustrated by the 2022 Sudan ebolavirus outbreak in Uganda.
