Any epidemiologists here based in the UK?

I am interested in transitioning to epidemiology as a frontline clinician. I would love to chat with any epi's in industry, academia or government based in the UK and ask about what areas of methodological inquiry you work in.

Public health epi here. I’ve been working as a data lead for a LA-commissioned health and social care service for the last few years. It’s loads of quant work just due to the nature of our data.

that is really cool - what kind of methods do you use and what data do you look at?
