title: "Spetses Introductory Course"
---

### Background:

This website contains the R teaching material that can be used (it is not compulsory) during the **Simulated Outbreak (SimOb) section of the Introductory Course module** of the EPIET (European Programme of Intervention Epidemiology Training), EUPHEM (European Public Health Microbiology) and MediPIET (Mediterranean and Black Sea Programme for Intervention Epidemiology Training) fellowships.

The SimOb is an 4-day exercise where fellows are provided a series of injects through which they will follow a 10-steps framework to investigate a specific outbreak. Some of the injects are dedicated to R-exercises that can be proved quite handy during an outbreak investigation. Those injects are maintained in this repository and are stored as different .qmd files, under the root folder:

-   `Data_import_cleaning.qmd`
-   `Case_definition.qmd`
-   `Lab_and_Descriptive.qmd`
-   `Univariate.qmd`
-   `Stratified.qmd`
