* '''Morten Frisch''', {{MD}}, {{PhD}}, DSc (Med), is a full-time re-searcher at Statens Serum Institut in Copenhagen and an adjunct professor of sexual health epidemiology at Aalborg University, Denmark. For more than 20 years, he has studied sexual risk factors for and correlates of chronic diseases, as well as sociodemographic, health-related, and lifestyle-related determinants of sexual health and ill-health. In 2011, Frisch and co-authors published a study in the ''International Journal of Epidemiology'' showing a statistically significant excess of sexual problems in circumcised men and their spouses.
