Public Health and Epidemiology · Clinical Bases
How it begins
Un compendio exhaustivo y de nivel de maestría sobre la dinámica de las ENT: desde la transición demográfica y los mecanismos epigenéticos de la salud fetal, hasta los modelos matemáticos de inferencia causal, el diseño de políticas públicas de salud de alta efectividad y la paradoja de prevención de Geoffrey Rose.
