Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome
  • Statistics
  • Virus

Sally Blower mainly investigates Virology, Epidemiology, Transmission, Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome and Drug resistance. Her research integrates issues of Basic reproduction number and Environmental health in her study of Virology. Her Epidemiology study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Demography.

Sally Blower has included themes like Immunology and Public health in her Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome study. Sally Blower does research in Immunology, focusing on Vaccination specifically. Sally Blower interconnects Developed country, Developing country and Mycobacterium tuberculosis in the investigation of issues within Drug resistance.

Her most cited work include:

  • Sensitivity and Uncertainty Analysis of Complex Models of Disease Transmission: an HIV Model, as an Example (862 citations)
  • The intrinsic transmission dynamics of tuberculosis epidemics. (380 citations)
  • A tale of two futures: HIV and antiretroviral therapy in San Francisco. (346 citations)

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

Immunology, Virology, Demography, Environmental health and Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome are her primary areas of study. Her Immunology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Transmission, Incidence and Epidemic control. In general Virology study, her work on Virus often relates to the realm of Transmission, thereby connecting several areas of interest.

Sally Blower has researched Demography in several fields, including Men who have sex with men, Cohort study, Viral load, Confidence interval and Sexual intercourse. Her Environmental health research incorporates elements of Public health and Health policy. The Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome study combines topics in areas such as Epidemiology and Risk factor.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Immunology (28.65%)
  • Virology (21.91%)
  • Demography (20.79%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2011-2021)?

  • Transmission (16.29%)
  • Demography (20.79%)
  • Environmental health (19.66%)

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

Her primary areas of study are Transmission, Demography, Environmental health, Psychological intervention and Geospatial analysis. Her work carried out in the field of Demography brings together such families of science as Viral load, Men who have sex with men, Incidence and Cohort study. The various areas that Sally Blower examines in her Environmental health study include Hiv epidemic, Intervention and Health care.

She combines subjects such as Developing country, Gerontology, Environmental resource management and Microbicides for sexually transmitted diseases with her study of Psychological intervention. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Transmission and Epidemiology. Her Virology research includes elements of Risk analysis and Male Homosexuality.

Between 2011 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Universal access to HIV treatment versus universal 'test and treat': transmission, drug resistance & treatment costs. (43 citations)
  • Testing the hypothesis that treatment can eliminate HIV: a nationwide, population-based study of the Danish HIV epidemic in men who have sex with men (30 citations)
  • Using geospatial modelling to optimize the rollout of antiretroviral-based pre-exposure HIV interventions in Sub-Saharan Africa (28 citations)

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

  • Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome
  • Statistics
  • Virus

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Geospatial analysis, Demography, Transmission, Treatment as prevention and Developing country. Her Demography research incorporates themes from Men who have sex with men, Viral load and Immunology. Her Treatment as prevention study is concerned with Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome in general.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Transmission and Gerontology in addition to Developing country. Her Transmission study incorporates themes from Human migration and Environmental health. Her work on Outbreak as part of general Virology study is frequently connected to Political science, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them.
