About the Project

The EndVoC project investigates the association between prior COVID-19 infections and vaccinations with changes in body mass index (BMI) and endocrine health, particularly focusing on obesity.

By leveraging classical statistical methods and advanced machine learning techniques, our specific project within EndVoC analyzes BMI fluctuations in the Spanish population during the COVID-19 pandemic, exploring relationships between BMI, COVID-19 diagnosis, and vaccination status.

Our findings will provide critical insights into how the pandemic has impacted population health, guiding public health strategies to manage obesity and improve health outcomes in vulnerable populations. This research is funded by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under grant agreement No 874719.
