Fifteen years of epidemiology in BMC Medicine.
TL;DR: The last 15 years of epidemiological research published by BMC Medicine is discussed, with a specific focus on how this reflects changes occurring in the field of epidemiology over this period; the impact of ‘Big Data’; the reinvigoration of debates about causality; and, as the authors increasingly work across and with many diverse disciplines, the use of the name ‘population health science’.
