Jack Stone

Jack Stone serves as Associate Professor in Infectious Disease Mathematical Modelling at Bristol Medical School, University of Bristol, where his research focuses on quantitative analysis of HIV and hepatitis C virus (HCV) transmission dynamics among key populations including people who inject drugs (PWID). His work integrates mathematical modeling with health economics to evaluate public health interventions across global settings.

His core expertise spans:

• Mathematical modeling of infectious disease transmission
• Cost-effectiveness analysis of harm reduction services
• Structural determinants of HIV/HCV epidemics
• Systematic reviews of intervention efficacy

Recent publications demonstrate consistent emphasis on modeling prison-based interventions, substance use disorder comorbidities, and structural barriers to care, with methodological strengths in cross-national comparative analyses and policy-relevant cost-effectiveness frameworks. His 2025 output shows particular concentration on overdose prevention, HCV elimination strategies, and stigma impacts across the UK, US, Africa, and Southeast Asia.

Dr. Stone collaborates extensively within Bristol Medical School's Public Health Sciences division, notably with Professors Hickman and Vickerman, contributing to the institution's leadership in infectious disease modeling through both empirical studies and methodological innovations in transmission dynamics.
