In the epidemiologic jungle. STUDENTS MAJORING IN EPIDEMIOLOGY Col. Samuel Caldwell, Dr. Earl Catcott, Dr. Winifred Danaraj, Dr. Daniel Flahault, Dr. Jon Fodnes, Dr. Robert Glass, Dr. George Elarper, Dr. William Kanncl, Dr. Martin Marx, Dr. Donald Sample, Dr. Otoniel Velasco, Dr. Raymond West. T HE recent appointment of Dr. MacMahon as Head of the Department of Epidemi¬ ology has brought about a new orientation of the department. With great progress in the control of infectious diseases has come a shift of emphasis in epidemiology. Chronic and non-infectious diseases such as coronary heart disease, mental illness, and cancer, are receiving more attention because of their high prevalence and the magnitude of the resultant disability. Government and foundation support for such research has increased to the point that there exists a serious shortage of investigators trained and experienced in epidemiologic methods suitable for the investigation of non-communicable disease. Goals of the department include: providing a sound comprehensive course in general epidemiologic method for the MPH curriculum, providing the opportunity for specialists in epidemiology to obtain training in those epidemiologic methods appro¬ priate to the investigation of the non-infectious diseases, and the establishment of research programs in the same area. 15
