Expanding the Scope of Clinical Epidemiology More Evidence, Communication and Decision-Making

Welcome to the Department of Clinical Trial and Clinical Epidemiology

Clinical epidemiology has been evolved in modern medicine. That helps to understand the conceptual gaps between structured experience of basic science and the more complex, open-ended problems arising for the care of patients. Based on the principals of clinical trials and the use of clinical epidemiology, we tried to provide the evidence towards improving the care of the patients.
