Epidemiology has been increasingly recognized as a public health strategy for health research, intervention and health policy making. In this communication I will focus on strategies and methods for epidemiology within the context of working together across disciplines and cultures. That problems are local but methods global is one of the immediate lesions from these collaborations as well as the obvious awareness that no one can be an expert on others. Our experience from collaborative research and research in Sweden is also that of a mutual benefit between Swedish and development research. This also applies to research training and capability strengthening where a close connection between field research and training is needed.
流行病学已日益被视为一种用于健康研究、干预和卫生政策制定的公共卫生策略。在本次交流中，我将聚焦于跨学科和跨文化合作背景下的流行病学策略与方法。认识到问题是局部的，但方法是通用的，这是这些合作带来的直接经验教训之一，同时也明显意识到没有人能成为他人领域的专家。我们在合作研究以及瑞典研究中的经验表明，瑞典研究与发展研究之间是互利共赢的。这也适用于研究培训和能力建设，其中需要实地研究与培训之间建立紧密联系。
