About This Course
The primary aim of this programme is to grow the local clinician scientist / investigator talent pool by training clinicians with interest and aptitude in research. The MCI programme provides essential didactic training for clinical research and will equip these clinicians with the basic analytical knowledge and skills needed to design and conduct clinical investigations that are relevant to patient care within their areas of specialisation. This training will also allow practising clinicians to collaborate more effectively with other investigators in translational research projects.

MCI5001 Clinical Epidemiology I
Modular Credits: 4
Module Coordinator: Dr Mikael Hartman
This module covers measurement of health, disease states and their determinants in populations, from routine hospital or population data and epidemiologic surveys. Topics include principles in the design and conduct of observational epidemiologic studies, evaluation of diagnostic tests, health information systems, bias and confounding. Principles taught are illustrated and reinforced through interactive sessions on selected topics.
MCI5002 Clinical Biostatistics I
Modular Credits: 4
Module Coordinator: Dr Chan Yiong Huak
The course focuses on basic statistical tools that are explicitly directed towards clinical investigations. This module will be integrated with various epidemiological study designs. It will cover a variety of topics ranging from descriptive statistics involving measurement
