MRC CAiTE - identifying real causes of health and disease

The aim of the centre is to develop and apply novel methods that can be used to determine the causes of health and disease in populations.

Work in the centre covers a large range of disease and health related outcomes, including cardiovascular disease, obesity, diabetes, cancer, mental ill-health, smoking, alcohol and physical activity. The unifying features of this work are developing and applying methods to understand causal pathways to health and disease endpoints and to improve causal inference in observational epidemiology.
