Characterising disease burden in youth: a systematic analysis of global data

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

I am a paediatric trainee who has worked with young people in a variety of settings. I have also completed training in epidemiology. My project will use the Global Burden of Disease study to estimate rates of death, disease, injury and risk factors for young people on a global scale. It will extend the burden of disease framework to better understand Indigenous young people’s health in Australia, and will critically review the best ways to measure the health of young Indigenous people.
