About NordicEPI 2022
Reykjavík, August 18-19
The Icelandic Association of Epidemiology and Biostatistics welcomes you to the NordicEpi Reykjavik 2022, the 10th Nordic conference on epidemiology and register-based research. While special theme of conference this year will be lessons learned from the Covid-19 pandemic, we will also cover a broad spectrum of epidemiological research and topics including issues in research methodology, biostatistics, epidemiology of various exposures and health outcomes, health inequalities, and health service research.
The linked population-based health registers from the Nordic countries provide a unique opportunity to study various exposures and health outcomes, socio-demographic factors, health service use and population dynamics.

The Centre is a vibrant community of academics, research specialists and young scientists, working on a diverse portfolio of population-based research.
