摘要

我们从统计学家的角度解决了“数字流行病学是否代表传染病流行病学的认知转变”这个问题。我们的主要论点是，传染病流行病学并没有从根本上改变，因为它一直是由数据驱动的。然而，随着数据方面变得更加突出，我们讨论了现代流行病学家的统计工具箱，并认为在数字时代解决问题比以往任何时候都更需要跨学科的定量方法。

A statistician's perspective on digital epidemiology.

We address the question "does digital epidemiology represent an epistemic shift in infectious disease epidemiology" from a statistician's viewpoint. Our main argument is that infectious disease epidemiology has not changed fundamentally as it always has been data-driven. However, as the data aspect has become more prominent, we discuss the statistical toolbox of the modern epidemiologist and argue that problem solving in the digital age, more than ever requires an interdisciplinary quantitative approach.

期刊介绍： The purpose of Life Sciences, Society and Policy (LSSP) is to analyse social, ethical and legal dimensions of the most dynamic branches of life sciences and technologies, and to discuss ways to foster responsible innovation, sustainable development and user-driven social policies. LSSP provides an academic forum for engaged scholarship at the intersection of life sciences, philosophy, bioethics, science studies and policy research, and covers a broad area of inquiry both in emerging research areas such as genomics, bioinformatics, biophysics, molecular engineering, nanotechnology and synthetic biology, and in more applied fields such as translational medicine, food science, environmental science, climate studies, research on animals, sustainability, science education and others. The goal is to produce insights, tools and recommendations that are relevant not only for academic researchers and teachers, but also for civil society, policy makers and industry, as well as for professionals in education, health care and the media, thus contributing to better research practices, better policies, and a more sustainable global society.
