- Also known as a panel study. A cohort study is a form of longitudinal study used
  in medicine and social science. It is one type of study design and should be compared
  with a cross-sectional study.  A cohort is a group of people who share a common
  characteristic or experience within a defined period (e.g., are born, leave school,
  lose their job, are exposed to a drug or a vaccine, etc.). The comparison group
  may be the general population from which the cohort is drawn, or it may be another
  cohort of persons thought to have had little or no exposure to the substance under
  investigation, but otherwise similar. Alternatively, subgroups within the cohort
  may be compared with each other.
