SUMMARY:Online Lecture 1: The epidemiological transition (rescheduled)
DESCRIPTION:Lecturer: Prof. Isabelle Devos\, Ghent University \nContent of the lecture/ workshop: This lecture combines theoretical content with active learning to help students understand the epidemiological transition theory in a global and historical context. Special emphasis is placed on assessing the quality of the cause-of-death data when examining the epidemiological transition.\n \nObjectives of the lecture/ workshop: This lecture aims to allow students to think critically about the theory\, its updates and derivatives (e.g. health transition) and potential factors driving the transition (economic development\, public health\, medical progress\, etc.). \nRequirements: It is advisable to review the articles to facilitate an informed discussion during class.  \nRecommended reading:  \n\nOmran  Abdel R.
