In Module 3, you will engage with the required reading, Clinical Epidemiology—The Essentials by Grant S. Fletcher (6e), as the primary source of content. These lessons will:

  1. Introduce you to the field and purpose of clinical epidemiology.
  2. Understand the basic principles of risk
  3. Dive deeper into risk by looking at the principles in the context of disease exposure. 

There are three quizzes at the end of each lesson that are to be completed via E.Flo MD.
