The scientist's recent publications cover a range of topics within clinical microbiology and infectious diseases. Notable papers include:

  • European Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases: 2021 update on the treatment guidance document for Clostridioides difficile infection in adults (2021) - Clinical Microbiology and Infection
  • Afucosylated IgG characterizes enveloped viral responses and correlates with COVID-19 severity (2020) - Science
  • A standardised model for stool banking for faecal microbiota transplantation: a consensus report from a multidisciplinary UEG working group (2020) - United European Gastroenterology Journal
  • Clinical features and prognostic factors in Covid-19: A prospective cohort study (2021) - EBioMedicine
  • Autoantibodies against type I interferons are associated with multi-organ failure in COVID-19 patients (2021) - Intensive Care Medicine

Goorhuis has frequently collaborated with several coauthors, including Martin P. Grobusch, Marc van der Valk, Neeltje A. Kootstra, Diederik van de Beek, and W. Joost Wiersinga. These collaborations indicate a strong interdisciplinary approach within infectious diseases and immunology research.

The scientist's work has appeared in multiple publication venues, with repeated contributions to:

  • Travel Medicine and Infectious Disease
  • bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)
  • Clinical Infectious Diseases
  • Clinical Microbiology and Infection
  • Journal of Travel Medicine

Their research topics reflect focused investigation into SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19 research, COVID-19 clinical studies, and immunotherapy. Other main topics include the long-term effects of COVID-19, immunodeficiency and autoimmune disorders, vaccine coverage and hesitancy, and viral infections and outbreak research.

The subfields and topics studied by Goorhuis align to provide insights into both clinical and immunological perspectives, especially within the context of emerging viral infections.
