The METHODS team is very involved in training the next generation of leaders in epidemiology and statistics.
Our doctoral students benefit from a solid training programme with regular supervisor meetings (1/week), participation in the meetings and activities of the METHODS team (staff meetings, scientific café, presentation of their work), and in the scientific activities of CRESS (speed meeting, doctoral seminar, peer-review training, etc.).
All of our students publish their thesis work as first authors in recognised scientific journals, including high-impact journals such as BMJ, PLOS Medicine, JAMA Int Med, etc.
Doctoral school
The METHODS team is affiliated with the doctoral school "Public Health: Epidemiology and Medical Information Sciences" ED 393 (Université Paris Cité). All the details relating to the application, registration, and thesis defence are available on the school's website.
