Affiliation
Teaching
- I have been the Course Director of the MSc in Sexually Transmitted Infections & HIV since 1997, and I have developed and organised the Study Unit "Control of Sexually Transmitted Diseases" from 1997 until 2003 (now titled "Control of RTI/STI")

Research
- I have participated, through a succession of DFID-funded research programmes on HIV/AIDS & STI, in research on various aspects of HIV/STI control in several anglophone and francophone African countries, in China and in Brazil.
- My main research interests are in the clinical management of STI, the organisation of STI services in various contexts, and the evaluation of interventions targeting the HIV-STI interactions, with a particular interest in genital herpes (HSV-2), human papillomavirus (HPV), and cervico-vaginal infections.
- I was until 2010 the Director of the DFID-funded Research Programme Consortium on Capacity Building and Research on Sexual & Reproductive Health and HIV in Developping Countries (2005-2010).
- I am currently the coordinator of a EU/FP7 funded consortium doing research on cervical cancer prevention among HIV-infected women in Africa titled HARP (http://harp-fp7.org/)
