You'll do fine, I promise! The best thing you can do is look through your notes, make sure you didn't forget anything, and get the sleep you need. The worst thing you could do is stay up late adding extra things you don't need and freaking out. Just know that whatever you need you have, take a deep breath, and good luck!

Hey so we all need vocal help for Disease Detectives right? So I'll post a definition and you'll reply with an answer and a new definition and it'll go on in time. OK let's start.
-ongoing presence of an agent within a given area or population

Endemic.
Q2:
an assessment of radioactive materials that may be present inside a person’s body through analysis of the person’s blood, urine, feces, or sweat.
I'm just starting this event... and I'm confused between the exact definitions of clinical and classical epidemiology. I sort of know what they generally are, but I'm still confused-- would a case study be considered part of classical or clinical epi?

Q 3: to compare people with and without exposures to see what happens to each.
Yep!
A3: Prospective cohort study.
Q4: The proportion of persons infected, after exposure to a causative agent, who then develop clinical disease.
For clinical vs. classical, this is the definition I use:
"While classical epidemiology is the study of the distribution and determinants of diseases in populations, clinical epidemiology is the application of the same sorts of principles and methods to the diagnosis and treatment of disease." Source
As far as a case study goes, I don't think it really falls under either category, but rather acts to complement a more traditional epidemiological study like a case-control, usually by suggesting potential hypotheses to be investigated further in a more rigorous manner.
