The Department of Epidemiology at Geisel School of Medicine and Dartmouth College is driven to excel in the discovery of disease etiology and progression. Our faculty rely on rigorously constructed hypothesis-driven clinical trials and population-based research and apply state-of-the-art and novel methods and technologies to advance the field of epidemiology and impact human health and disease.

At our core is a commitment to highly interdisciplinary research programs with a translational emphasis. Our faculty’s expertise spans diverse areas in molecular-genetic epidemiology, epigenetics, nutritional and chemoprevention research, cancer etiology, environmental epidemiology, pharmacoepidemiology, women’s and children’s health, diseases of aging, global health, medical imaging, disease and screening registries, and epidemiologic methods.
