Target audience:
Pharmacists, clinicians, academics (including statisticians, epimiologists, and related MSc/PhD students); Industry (pharmacy or device) or Regulatory staff with an interest in the use of routinely collected data for research.

Learning Goals:
1. Gain an understanding on the existing sources of routinely collected data for epidemiological research
2. Be able to discuss common types of study and designs for the use of such data: a) epidemiological research, b) predictive modelling, c) health economics, d) pharmacoepidemiology, and e) device/registry epidemiology
3. Understand relevant issues and learn potential solutions applied to the use of big health data: a) data management and information governance, b) interaction with industry and regulators, c) stats/methods: missing information, bias, confounding, misclassification
4. Learn introductory concepts of pharmacoepidemiology and medical device epidemiology using observational, routinely collected or registry-based data
