The scope of the project is a systematic literature review of the epidemiology estimates (i.e., incidence and prevalence) for a given cardiovascular/cerebrovascular condition(s). The intern will lead this effort in a classical literature review step-by-step approach: will design the search strategy, perform screening and extraction, assess the quality of the included studies, and prepare the final report.
The intern will work with other epidemiologists within the department and will be involved in the discussions to help contextualize and interpret the findings. The intern will also have an opportunity to participate in other department events (e.g., educational webinars, team meetings, networking, etc.).
