Description: This course is designed to equip participants with the fundamental concepts and techniques necessary for the analysis of clustered data. In many research fields and study designs, including epidemiology and clinical trials, data are often collected in clustered or hierarchical structures. Examples include repeated measurements of the same subject over time, data grouped by family or school or other type of units, and cluster randomized trials. Ignoring clustering can lead to incorrect standard errors and overly precise confidence intervals, thereby compromising the validity of the conclusions of the study.

Description: To what extent, and through which mechanisms, do commercial actors shape individual and population health? According to the WHO, just four industries are responsible for an estimated 2.7 million deaths each year in the European Region alone. In this course, we’ll take a critical look at the commercial determinants of health (CDoH): the ways in which companies, through their products, practices, and policy influence, affect health outcomes. We’ll dive into evidence from sectors such as tobacco, alcohol, ultra-processed foods, and pharmaceuticals to understand how these sectors contribute directly and indirectly to preventable morbidity and mortality. We’ll also explore frameworks and tools, including Health in All Policies and Health Impact Assessment as means to develop a critical understanding of how to address commercial drivers of ill health through policy. By the end, you will have a better understanding of the ways in which commercial actors influence health and a more critical view on industry “terms and conditions”.

Description: Public health surveillance is the ongoing and systematic collection, analysis, and interpretation of health-related data, closely integrated with their timely dissemination and communication to those responsible for public health strategies and action on disease prevention and control. Methods and tools for surveillance and population health monitoring, initially developed for infectious diseases and outbreak control, are now applied to other health conditions like chronic diseases, mental health or occupational and environmental health. With the advances in the field of data science and the growing access to multiple types and increasing volumes of data, the field of surveillance and health monitoring is going to adapt and evolve rapidly. This includes moving to a wider scope of applications, for example, surveillance may also include monitoring health care services, disease trends and risk factors associated with adverse health events. This also implies using new methods for modelling and visualizing data. These approaches not only provide innovative ways to interpret complex information but also offer powerful tools to communicate results to a broader audience.

“Organisations work the way human beings create them” (Peter M. Senge, 1996). In today’s fast-paced world, change is a constant and increasingly complex element of organisational management. Traditional management approaches often lack specificity and awareness for current environmental, societal and technological transformations. The future success of organisations in the 21st century, however, will depend on their response to these rapidly shifting trends. Will leaders cling to the status quo and be left behind? Or will they embrace the changing landscape and become drivers for change?

Description: Population health is shaped by a complex set of determinants occurring throughout the life course. Life Course Epidemiology (LCE) aims to causally link exposures across the life course to long-term health outcomes via longitudinal studies. LCE investigates the dynamic of exposures at different periods of life (from conception to old ages), at various levels (social, environmental, behavioural, and biological) and historical periods (birth cohorts), and how these exposures influence population health. For this course, we focus on LCE in public health whereby unravelling the complex origins of disease and health aims at informing preventive strategies. Life course epidemiology informs public health interventions via i) identification of windows of opportunity (life periods), ii) identification of target exposures and iii) assessment of potential intervention strategies. Stemming from the same framework, we introduce life course theories and contemporary methods of causal inference from observational data, allowing to explicit confounding assumptions underlying LCE research questions and to evaluate potential public health interventions. More specifically, we will address the following topics: - Why life course studies are essential in Public Health, with an emphasis on early life determinants and primordial intervention of chronic diseases. - Core epidemiologic study designs of life course studies (birth and prospective cohort studies). - Main life course models (critical/sensitive period and accumulation) through - which exposures may affect later health outcomes. - Causal thinking and statistical methods to assess LCE models from observational data

Description Research Integrity means conducting research in such a way that the methods and results meet the highest scientific and ethical standards. Integrity in research covers a wide range of topics, from issues of open and transparent communication to questions of authorship or the publication process. At the University of Basel the Code of Conduct defines the values and guiding principles for researchers’ in their daily work and interactions. The application and implementation of such principles are of paramount importance to ensure trust and confidence in knowledge gained by researchers and the scientific community. This online course offered by the University of Basel provides a basic introduction to the most important topics in research integrity and can contribute to the establishment of a culture of good scientific practice and research integrity at the University of Basel. It is important to emphasise that such a culture is rooted in the daily research routines of every researcher, research group, department, faculty or discipline. We therefore recommend that the course is framed by additional activities in the research communities. While this course is already compulsory in some departments or PhD programs, we encourage all researchers to take this course, especially in their PhD or postdoc phase.

Students will direct the discussion and the other students participate in critiquing the articles for epidemiological issues (e.g. study design, analysis, writing, sampling). Furthermore, we will focus on policy and programmatic implications for improving health as well as clinical applications as appropriate. The Epidemiology Journal Club is an environment where everyone’s thoughts and analysis are welcomed. All students are encouraged to read the article(s) and consistently and actively contribute to the discussion to hopefully spark some interesting and lively (and maybe even “fun”) debate. Each group member brings his or her own expertise and experience to the discussion, and we encourage all opinions and ideas to be shared among the group in an environment of mutual respect. Learning objectives: The central objectives of this Journal Club are to provide students a facilitated opportunity to: Critique public health, epidemiology and biomedical studies Expand your knowledge and understanding of research topics that may not have been presented in other courses Develop your knowledge and understanding of epidemiology methods that may be important in future research projects Practice oral presentation skills that may be useful in future professional settings

In this 2.5-day course, participants will generate a video clip about their research project. On the first day, students will be introduced to the steps of filmmaking and will then draft their first storyboard. In a second step, students will generate footage about their research. On the second day, the students will learn about film cutting and editing and will then apply this new knowledge to their own videos to generate the first version of their film on the research project. On the following day, all video clips will be watched and discussed in a small “film festival”. Learning objectives: At the end of the workshop, participants will be able to: Describe the aims of visual science communication in the video format Plan the steps of filmmaking for an own project Produce a script for your video story Carry out a shooting/ footage about your research Cut your footage into a film of up to 60 seconds

Permettre de se familiariser avec différents types d’évaluation que l’on retrouve en promotion de la santé (études d’impact sur la santé, aspects économiques, auto-évaluation,monitorage, analyse de besoins, etc.). Différentes méthodes quantitatives et qualitatives d’évaluation et de gestion des impacts en promotion de la santé sont analysées, ainsi que l’utilisation des résultats d’une évaluation pour améliorer un projet ou une mesure. Ce module permet en outre de développer des compétences pour communiquer les résultats d’une évaluation à différents publics.
