Overview
Background
Dr Mohammad Reza Baneshi is a biostatistician with training, work, and research experience in multiple facets of biostatistics and epidemiology. His background includes advanced research on applying statistical procedures to cancer and HIV/AIDS research. Specifically, his main research interests include analysis of time-to-event data, analysis of longitudinal data, and size estimation of stigmatized groups most at risk of HIV/AIDS. He joined the UQ in 2020 and currently works as a biostatistician at the Australian Women and Girls’ Health Research (AWaGHR) Centre, School of Public Health.
Dr Mohammad Reza Baneshi also has an adjunct position as a Professor of Biostatistics at the Kerman University of Medical Sciences, IRAN.
Before joining the UQ, he conducted several national studies in Iran to provide the most up-to-date estimates of the marginalised populations who are at high risk of HIV. He has made substantial contributions in applying size-estimation methods to stigmatized populations such as people with HIV/AIDS, sex workers, men who have had sex with men, and injection drug users. In 2022, he co-authored the reference book of size estimation methods.
