Présentation
Clinical research has generated tremendous knowledge on diagnosis and treatment. However, it does not provide sufficient information to determine what treatment works best, for whom, and under which conditions.
Comparative Effectiveness Research (CER) addresses these issues by identifying the most effective interventions for specific patient groups. It is a growing area of cutting-edge research that is elevated at the level of national initiative in the USA. It is “the generation and synthesis of evidence that compares the benefits and harms of alternative methods to prevent, diagnose, treat, and monitor a clinical condition or to improve the delivery of care”.
This university program is part of Université Paris Cité's Graduate School of Public Health, linking master's and doctoral courses with advanced research labs. The program in English emphasizes comparative effectiveness in research, covering clinical epidemiology, biostatistics, and research methodology. Read more >
Objectifs
This is a unique opportunity for students to get a specialised Master in Comparative Effectiveness Research, a first of its kind in Europe, offered by top-level professors coming from the Amsterdam University, the Danube University, the Ioannina University, the Oxford University, the Paris Descartes University, the Paris Diderot University, the Queen’s University Belfast, the Utrecht University, and the York University.
This new Master of Science is delivered in English and aims at international students who want to acquire interdisciplinary skills to evolve in the field of Comparative Effectiveness Research. The programme is limited to 30 students, a small group size that will allow professors to use highly interactive and innovative teaching methods including work in small groups. The goal of the programme is to acquire strong skills in methods, epidemiology, and biostatistics.
Compétences visées
Acquire the methodological bases needed to do any activity in public health, and master the public health concepts and methods in order to apply them to:
- Therapeutic assessment and comparative assessment of research in the diagnostic, therapeutic, prognostic, and preventive fields,
- The development of health information systems,
- The context of healthcare in the diagnostic, therapeutic, prognostic, and preventive fields,
- The context of the assessment and management of risks - including professional and environmental risks,
- The context of health safety and healthcare quality.
After finishing the Master’s degree, students should be able to get involved in research projects or be active in protecting, promoting, or restoring public health.
The Master’s aims at providing students with:
- Theoretical background related to subjects that contribute to the collective approach of health events, such as general biostatistics, clinical epidemiology, modelling, biomedical computing, epidemiology, clinical research, risk assessment, …
- Extended CER-specific methodological knowledge,
- Practical experience within a research or professional environment. Students should be able to apply the acquired methodological knowledge through their personal work (writing of a thesis and thesis defense) during their 6-month internship.
