This course will equip students with practical skills for analysing routinely collected electronic health records (EHRs) data. During the course, the students will learn about the provenance of EHRs data, how to identify exposures and outcomes, how to apply analytical approaches in EHRs data, and how to conduct research studies using EHRs. The course will focus on a range of techniques for answering causal questions in EHRs such as propensity score methods, trial emulation, and case-only designs. The course will also cover developing and evaluating risk prediction models to support clinical decision-making, and provide hands-on experience with real-world EHRs data throughout.
