Mortality research focuses on studying the factors that contribute to death and understanding the patterns of mortality in populations. This includes examining the rates of death from specific causes, identifying risk factors that increase the likelihood of death, and evaluating the impact of interventions or policies on reducing mortality rates. Mortality research often involves analyzing large datasets, conducting longitudinal studies, and collaborating with medical professionals and public health officials to improve public health outcomes. By understanding the factors that influence mortality, researchers aim to develop strategies to prevent premature deaths and improve overall health and longevity in populations.
