Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome
  • Poverty
  • Health care

His primary areas of study are Demography, Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, Environmental health, Rural health and Verbal autopsy. His Demography research focuses on Mortality rate in particular. His Mortality rate study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Psychiatry and Health care.

His work on Risk behaviour as part of general Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome research is frequently linked to Life expectancy, Internal migration and Transport infrastructure, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science. His research integrates issues of Pediatrics and Health policy in his study of Environmental health. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Verbal autopsy, Rural environment is strongly linked to Demographic surveillance system.

His most cited work include:

  • Profile: Agincourt Health and Socio-demographic Surveillance System (297 citations)
  • The UCL–Lancet Commission on Migration and Health: the health of a world on the move (211 citations)
  • Implications of mortality transition for primary health care in rural South Africa: a population-based surveillance study (195 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Demography, Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, Socioeconomics, Mortality rate and Environmental health. His research in Demography intersects with topics in Verbal autopsy, Cause of death, Young adult, Socioeconomic status and Child mortality. Mark A. Collinson combines subjects such as Psychiatry, Malaria and Health policy with his study of Verbal autopsy.

His Socioeconomics study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Economic growth, Census and Internal migration. His work deals with themes such as Developing country, Pediatrics and Population study, which intersect with Mortality rate. Mark A. Collinson has included themes like Chronic care, Rural health, Health care and Epidemiological transition in his Environmental health study.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Demography (51.24%)
  • Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (29.75%)
  • Socioeconomics (25.62%)

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

  • Socioeconomics (25.62%)
  • Socioeconomic status (20.66%)
  • Gerontology (14.88%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Socioeconomics, Socioeconomic status, Gerontology, Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome and Context. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Urbanization, Demography and Multiple correspondence analysis. His biological study deals with issues like Internal migration, which deal with fields such as Population health.

His study in Gerontology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Longitudinal study and Cohort. A majority of his Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome research is a blend of other scientific areas, such as Life course approach, Verbal autopsy, Epidemiological transition, Biostatistics and Life expectancy. Mark A. Collinson has researched Psychological intervention in several fields, including Public policy and Environmental health.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The UCL–Lancet Commission on Migration and Health: the health of a world on the move (211 citations)
  • Cohort Profile: Health and Ageing in Africa: A Longitudinal Study of an INDEPTH Community in South Africa (HAALSI) (47 citations)
  • Cohort Profile: Health and Ageing in Africa: A Longitudinal Study of an INDEPTH Community in South Africa (HAALSI) (47 citations)
