Epidemiology
Epidemiology is the basic science of public health. Human genome epidemiology (HuGE) is concerned with understanding how human and pathogen genomic variation affects the distribution of disease in populations.
The Office of Genomics and Precision Public Health tracks epidemiologic study results in our weekly horizon scan and Advanced Molecular Detection Clips and deposits relevant publications in the Public Health Genomics Knowledge Base.
