Simon A. J. Gregson - Epidemiology

Author Information

Simon A. J. Gregson is a prominent researcher affiliated with the Manicaland Centre for Public Health Research at the Biomedical Research and Training Institute in Harare, Zimbabwe. He is also associated with the Department of Infectious Disease Epidemiology at Imperial College London, United Kingdom. His work primarily focuses on the epidemiology of HIV/AIDS and its various socio-economic and public health impacts, particularly in Zimbabwe and other parts of Africa.

Research Contributions

Simon A. J. Gregson has made significant contributions to understanding HIV epidemiology, with a particular focus on the African continent. His recent work includes studies on the visibility of misdiagnosis in point-of-care HIV testing and improving access to pre-exposure prophylaxis for adolescent girls and young women in Eastern Zimbabwe. He has also investigated age patterns of HIV incidence, the intersection of stigma and confidentiality in HIV prevention, and the association between HIV infection and hypertension. His research often employs advanced statistical and modeling techniques to provide insights into HIV transmission dynamics and public health interventions.

Aliases

Simon A. J. Gregson is also known by several other names, including Simon Aj Gregson, Simon Gregson, S Gregson, and S. Gregson.
