We are serious about getting Public Health homework done. My emotions are so out of whack. Everyone is laughing or grinning about something, I just look like I am disturbed.
We were going over the Environmental Health homework and Epidemiology homework.
Just some notes from recitation class today:
Person Time = (in denominator)
Study Population = (in denominator) = person time (e.g. years)
Incidence = new cases (in numerator)
Initial data and post data = find midpoint (initial + post / 2, monthly data or average of all data)
Cumulative Incidence = measures population at risk for a certain exposure (numerator = new cases, denominator = everybody at risk – people who have disease already) Once measure that can be interpreted as a percentage.
Example of cumulative incidence; (0.2)(100) = 20%
Incidence Density = amount of time contributed to the study per person per time = individual case data is necessary to calculate incidence density. It is the most accurate way to calculate incidence (it involves how much time each participant contributed to study).
(Look in January notes for below) > look at the little book (review)
Case specific mortality = numerator = cases of death from disease, denominator = at risk of disease
Cause specific mortality = # of deaths from disease / population
Case fatality rate = # of deaths from disease / # of people with disease
It took me a while to get where I am today. Due to my countless trial and errors, I completely would not be who I am without my family and friends. I haven’t been this happy in a while. I’m more focused on school and I’m finally going back to work this week. I’m always on the go, but I don’t…
Where are you in the world right now? Haha, we would totally be the bestest friends in the world right now. I remember I visited Zama’s graduation back in 2007 and I saw you randomly in a car near the Teen Center and I was like “I know you, do you remember me?!” You looked at me with a semi-blank stare, but then you said yes. Did you really remember me? Haha. Just curious.

I haven’t “officially” said anything to my family or for that matter “to the public” about my love life, my likes and dislikes and/or everything else that involves romance. I devote this post to what I think about bodies and people’s diet/physique. I am very envious of those who have a healthy and lean body. I am not a fan of skinny people who look unhealthy to the point I can see their bone structure. I am very interested (as a fan and as a follower) to walk in the footsteps of those who have color (healthy color) and to those who have definition, aka six pack, that looks like they earned it though proper diet and not through an eating disorder or by unhealthily attaining their personal perfection. This involves to both females and males. Guys who looks skinny, but have definition look deadly. They look like they are killing themselves to get those cut-defined abs and muscles. You have to have fat, just not a lot of it. It is scary what our social-perceptions are, but this is mine. Health, fit, lean, proper, diet, sense, and anti-unhealthy tan of pale-ness.
I have come to a quick conclusion that in my field that I am currently in and want to continue, health science, it is best not to make a fancy and super creative resume and/or cover letter. It is best to simply get down my information in the most efficient and clean way possible so that the HR representative and/or manager (or any other person involved in the hiring process) can easily get the information they need from the applicant without having to decipher too much what they are reading.
Of course, I would definitely scratch that idea if I do make a resume for a more art-related field if I ever (or when) I continue schooling in cinematography/videography.
Hugo Rivera is an internationally known, best selling author with more than 10 books on fitness, weight loss, and natural bodybuilding. I just got done reviewing an article that he did for about.com on gaining muscle mass the correct way (diet habits, training program, etc.). The key to gaining…
So I know I got into UCD for Public Health, but ever since I decided to branch away from the idea of doing Nursing I still want to do something in the medical/health related field of study. I also applied to Regis University for their Neuroscience program as well as University of Denver for their Biology with a minor in Neuroscience. In other words, I want to eventually be a neuroscientiest, specifically either a neuropharmacologist or a neurologist. I wish I was working towards this right out of high school, but then again I wanted to go to film school… So maybe there is a reason why I am where I am today. I’ll just look towards God for guidance.
Had my brunch! Vitamins, minerals and herbs! Drank 2/8 of water for the day. Now I’m drinking coffee to jumpstart my day. Actually, I don’t need a jumpstart because the subtle clouds with the great big sun made my day.
