Dr. Bosch has conducted epidemiological research on cancers linked to infectious agents notably on cancer of the liver, the cervix, the genital tract and of the oral cavity and oropharynx. Dr Bosch was at the origin of the IARC program of epidemiological studies that demonstrated causality in the [[HPV]] and invasive [[cervical cancer]] relationship, established the role of the environmental co-factors for carcinogenesis among [[HPV]] positive women, and described the international variation of [[HPV]] types in [[cervical cancer]]. Some of these studies have played a catalytic role for the initiation of the first vaccine trials for HBV and [[HPV]] and for the evaluation of [[HPV]] tests as screening tools. Current interest reside in dissemination of scientific information of clinical relevance and in studies that integrate [[HPV]] vaccination and screening in environments with limited resources.<ref name=ipvsoc/>
