epidemiologi adalah ilmu yang mempelajari pola kesehatan dan penyakit serta fakor yang terkait di tingkat populasi.
ini adalah model cornerstone penelitian kesehatan masyarakat, dan membantu menginformasikan kedokteran berbasis bukti (eveidence based medicine) untuk mengidentifikasikan faktor risiko penyakit serta menentukan pendekatan penanganan yang optimal untuk praktik klinik dan untuk kedokteran preventif.
menurut dr. anton muhibuddin (universitas brawijaya), saat ini epidemiologi telah berkembang pesat baik pendalaman ilmunya maupun perluasan ilmunya.
perluasan ilmu epidemiologi saat ini juga mencakup epidemiologi bidang pertanian agrokompleks (termasuk perikanan, perkebunan, prikanan) dan mikrobiologi.
perluasan tersebut dirasa perlu karena manfaat epidemiolgi sangat nyata dirasakan dalam bidang-bidang ilmu tersebut.
pendalaman epidemiologi di antaranya meliputi peramalan berbasis komputer dan pengelolaan agroekosistem.
epidemiologi menggunakan beragam alat-alat ilmiah, dari kedokteran dan statistik sampai sosiologi dan antropologi.
banyak penyakit mengikuti arus migrasi penduduk, sehingga pemahaman tentang bagaimana penduduk bergerak mengikuti musim sangat penting untuk memahami penyebaran penyakit tertentu pada populasi tersebut.
epidemiologi tidak hanya berkutat pada masalah penyebaran penyakit, tetapi juga dengan cara penanggulangannya.
