In the section study design we focus on the various forms of clinical epidemiological study designs: cohort studies, cross-sectional studies, case-control studies, randomized trials, and meta-analysis. With these different study designs various research questions pertaining to clinical research can be answered. Each design has its own advantages and disadvantages, which will be extensively discussed during the course.
