Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome
  • Internal medicine
  • Disease

His primary areas of study are Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, Incidence, Immunology, Demography and Cohort. He has researched Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome in several fields, including Relative risk, Gynecology and Viral load. His Viral load study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Viral disease, Pediatrics and Hazard ratio.

His study in Incidence is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Young adult, Epidemiology and Sexually transmitted disease. His Seroconversion study, which is part of a larger body of work in Immunology, is frequently linked to Anaerococcus, bridging the gap between disciplines. He has included themes like Cohort study, Rural area, Attributable risk, Sexual intercourse and Developing country in his Demography study.

His most cited work include:

  • Health professionals for a new century: transforming education to strengthen health systems in an interdependent world (2894 citations)
  • Viral Load and Heterosexual Transmission of Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 (2565 citations)
  • Male circumcision for HIV prevention in men in Rakai, Uganda: a randomised trial (1862 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His scientific interests lie mostly in Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, Immunology, Demography, Virology and Incidence. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Viral disease, Relative risk and Epidemiology. His work on Viral load, Lentivirus and Seroconversion is typically connected to Foreskin as part of general Immunology study, connecting several disciplines of science.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Cohort study, Young adult, Marital status, Gynecology and Cohort in addition to Demography. His research in Incidence intersects with topics in Obstetrics and Confidence interval. His Sexually transmitted disease study incorporates themes from Odds ratio and Syphilis.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (34.80%)
  • Immunology (31.86%)
  • Demography (27.94%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Demography (27.94%)
  • Cohort study (17.65%)
  • Viral load (14.22%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

David Serwadda mostly deals with Demography, Cohort study, Viral load, Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome and Cohort. His Demography research also works with subjects such as

  • Young adult which is related to area like Interquartile range,

  • Cross-sectional study that intertwine with fields like Public health. His Cohort study study also includes

  • Relative risk most often made with reference to Poisson regression,

  • Confidence interval which intersects with area such as Pediatrics,

  • Prospective cohort study and related Global health,

  • Antiretroviral therapy which intersects with area such as Internal medicine.

His study brings together the fields of Incidence and Viral load. His Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome research includes elements of Psychological intervention, Clinical research and Odds. His research on Immunology often connects related topics like Microbiome.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • HIV Prevention Efforts and Incidence of HIV in Uganda (73 citations)
  • Migration and risk of HIV acquisition in Rakai, Uganda: a population-based cohort study (33 citations)
  • Penile anaerobic dysbiosis as a risk factor for HIV infection (32 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome
  • Internal medicine
  • Disease

David Serwadda focuses on Cohort study, Viral load, Demography, Cohort and Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. The various areas that David Serwadda examines in his Cohort study study include Prospective cohort study, Incidence, Pediatrics and Drug resistance. Immunology, Virus and Virology are the focus of his Viral load studies.

His specific area of interest is Immunology, where David Serwadda studies Immune system. His Demography research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Poisson regression, Young adult, Confidence interval, Gynecology and Gonorrhea. His Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome study frequently links to other fields, such as Psychological intervention.
