Institutionen för medicinsk epidemiologi och biostatistik bedriver forskning inom epidemiologi och biostatistik inom ett brett spektrum av områden inom biomedicinsk vetenskap. Institutionen är bland de största inom sitt område i Europa och har särskilt starka forskningsprofiler inom psykiatrisk, cancer-, reproduktiv, pediatrisk, farmakologisk, genetisk och geriatrisk epidemiologi, ätstörningar, precisionsmedicin, och biostatistik.
En del av framgången för institutionen beror på vår samarbetsanda, där en stor bidragande faktor är att forskare vid institutionen delar och samfinansierar gemensamma resurser (som t.ex. IT och en tillämpad biostatistikgrupp). Institutionen ligger på campus Solna. Mer information finns på http://ki.se/meb.
