The assessment is a 3,000 word structured critical analysis of published research or study, which will include a discussion of epidemiologic issues. The objective of the assessment is to enhance your ability to make sound epidemiologic judgements related to a public health issue and to give you experience of critically appraising an epidemiologic and/or public health research article. Three suggestions are provided below if you are uncertain about which topic area / study to critically appraise; please choose only one. If you wish to focus on a different topic area or study, please discuss this with your module tutor first to make sure it is appropriate. Suggested topic areas / studies: HIV prevalence in Sub-Saharan Africa Dwyer-Lindgren, L., Cork, M.A., Sligar, A. et al. (2019). Mapping HIV prevalence in sub-Saharan Africa between 2000 and 2017.

Expert Review of Vaccines, 17(12), 1063-1070. https://doi.org/10.1080/14760584.2018.1549994 1 All answers to the question given will need to be supported by references. These should include the wider literature on epidemiological theory and methodology literature, as well as global health and/or dominant health systems, to demonstrate the wider reading you have done. Tables and graphs can be used where applicable to maximum advantage to summarize the features, results, and peculiarities/limitations of the studies being reviewed. Please ensure all tables and graphs are referenced and titled. The text should not simply reiterate the facts contained in the tables and graphs, but should represent a critical discussion or synthesis of the material summarized in the tables and graphs. Paragraphs should be used at all times in your writing, and you should avoid the use of lists.exampleepidemology2.pdf
