Research year projects

At Department of Clinical Epidemiology, it is possible to carry out projects within the department's research areas, which cover many different medical and surgical specialties. The supervisors will work with the research year student to define the research question and the project. Below are examples of topics of previous research year projects:

  • The importance of comorbidity for the prognosis after heart scintigraphy
  • The prognosis after postoperative acute renal failure in cardiac surgery patients
  • Use of antihypertensive drugs during pregnancy and risk of ADHD in children
  • Use of glucocorticoids during pregnancy and risk of asthma in children
