Epi Info is used for analysis in medical research, and for data entry. Examples of its use for research include a study of eye conditions, [6] a study of healthcare infections [7] and a study of psychiatric morbidity. [8] Examples of papers that used Epi Info for data entry include a study on nutrition [9] and an epidemiological survey about ...
Exposure analysis is the science that describes how an individual or population comes in contact with a contaminant, including quantification of the amount of contact across space and time.
