How can you use different study designs and types of analysis to answer specific public health questions?

My research focused on the design of studies for research in health care and public health, and how the data from studies is analyzed to create conclusions. My literature review covered the process of discovering a problem, creating a research question, designing the study, analyzing the data, and making conclusions. My final project was the creation of a trial that aimed to determine the interaction between sleep and stress and how it affected performance on a short-term memory exam.
