The Unit’s research programmes are supported by a set of prospective cohort studies, detailed quantitative trait metabolic studies, case-control studies, trials and qualitative research studies that serve both aetiological and preventive purposes.
Currently many of the links below go to study pages on the main MRC Epidemiology Unit website. We are in the process of moving studies across to this site, and updating links.
