Principles of exposure assessment in epidemiology
Topics: Noise, air pollution, non-ionizing and ionizing radiation, radon
Exposure assessment methods: personal measurements, fixed site measurements, spatial modelling, biomarker, job-exposure matrix, questionnaire
Validation of exposure assessment
Type of errors in exposure assessment
Effect of exposure assessment errors and the implications for study results
Regulation of environmental risks

Methods: Lectures and practicals
Lernziele To understand the concept of environmental epidemiology with a special focus on exposure assessment; to know specific study designs used in environmental epidemiology; to become familiar with a variety of relevant exposures in international and public health research; to know basic principles of various exposure assessment methods; to be aware of the effects of various types of exposure assessment errors on the results of epidemiological studies.
Bemerkungen First lecture will be on 03.November 2025 and then every week until 15 December 2025.
