A panel study involves repeatedly collecting data from the same individuals over time to study changes within the same group. A cohort study follows a group of individuals who share a common characteristic or experience over time to see how their outcomes differ. The key difference is that in a panel study, the same individuals are followed over time, while in a cohort study, different individuals may be added to the study group over time.

Panel studies involve repeatedly collecting data from the same individuals over time to observe changes, while cohort studies follow a specific group of individuals with a common characteristic or experience over time to study outcomes. Both types of studies allow researchers to examine changes over time, but panel studies focus on the same individuals, whereas cohort studies track a specific group.
