Statistical Modelling for Evidence-Based Public Health Case Studies in HIV/AIDS Epidemiology and Child and Maternal Health /

This book presents a selection of statistical techniques and methods applied to analyze data arising from HIV/AIDS epidemiology, as well as child and maternal health. Evidence-based decision-making in public health interventions requires appropriate techniques applied to solve relevant statistical a...
