He also hold honorary positions at Sussex, Maastricht, Nottingham and Curtin universities. He has investigated a wide range of behaviour patterns including exercise, diet, alcohol use, condom use, smoking cessation, blood and organ donation and management of chronic illnesses. He has developed and evaluated effective interventions to promote health-enhancing behaviours in a range of contexts from schools in South Africa to “Weight Watchers” classes in Poland.
