Study with us
The Cancer Epidemiology Unit has an interdisciplinary team of academic researchers with expertise in epidemiology, statistics and clinical medicine. Many of the researchers supervise MSc and DPhil students and lecture on the MSc in Global Health Science and Epidemiology.
Students from the unit are encouraged to present their work at seminars in the unit, the department, and at national and international conferences.
Oxford Population Health hosts weekly seminars, including the prestigious Richard Doll seminar series, covering a range of topics.
