Professor Glenda Gray is a scientist working around the clock to stem the impact of HIV-Aids in the country.
Gray is a senior HIV clinician and scientist at Wits University who has been at the forefront of the fight against the pandemic for many decades.
I trained as a medical doctor at Wits University and specialised to become a paediatrician. As a young paediatrician, I witnessed HIV exploding in pregnant women and young children at the Chris Hani Baragwanath Hospital in the 1990s.
