Summary
Reducing substance use is a key goal within public health. Recent work has shown that a strong predictor of adolescent substance use is the substance use of their parents. The student will use longitudinal data to answer the question of whether – and how – substance use behaviours passed from parents to their children. In doing so they will develop skills including population and genetic epidemiology, data analysis, and qualitative interviewing and analysis.
