Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Virus
  • DNA

His primary scientific interests are in Virology, Virus, Genotype, Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome and Drug resistance. His work deals with themes such as Genetics and Reverse transcriptase, Polymerase chain reaction, which intersect with Virology. His study in the field of Foot-and-mouth disease virus is also linked to topics like Amniocentesis.

His Genotype research incorporates themes from Global health and Typing. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Meta-regression, Meta-analysis, Regimen and Developing country. His Drug resistance study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Logistic regression, Protease and Abacavir.

His most cited work include:

  • Detection and sequencing of Zika virus from amniotic fluid of fetuses with microcephaly in Brazil: a case study (759 citations)
  • Zika virus impairs growth in human neurospheres and brain organoids (695 citations)
  • Impact of HIV-1 subtype and antiretroviral therapy on protease and reverse transcriptase genotype: results of a global collaboration. (280 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Amilcar Tanuri spends much of his time researching Virology, Virus, Drug resistance, Immunology and Genotype. His Virology study incorporates themes from Genetics, Reverse transcriptase and Protease. His study in Reverse transcriptase is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Molecular biology, Lamivudine and Zidovudine.

His research in Virus focuses on subjects like Microcephaly, which are connected to Epidemiology. Amilcar Tanuri has included themes like Mutation, HIV drug resistance, Antibiotic resistance and Polymorphism in his Drug resistance study. His work in the fields of Genotype, such as Molecular epidemiology, overlaps with other areas such as Subtyping.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Virology (59.24%)
  • Virus (24.79%)
  • Drug resistance (17.65%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Virology (59.24%)
  • Zika virus (13.45%)
  • Virus (24.79%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Amilcar Tanuri focuses on Virology, Zika virus, Virus, Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 and Microcephaly. His work carried out in the field of Virology brings together such families of science as Serology and Reverse transcriptase. His Zika virus research includes themes of Pregnancy, Fetus, Transcriptome, Outbreak and Immune system.

The concepts of his Virus study are interwoven with issues in In vitro, Antigen, Transmission, microRNA and Innate immune system. His Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 study also includes

  • Coronavirus disease 2019 and Genetics most often made with reference to 2019-20 coronavirus outbreak,
  • Epidemic spread which is related to area like Coronavirus,
  • Spike Protein, which have a strong connection to Evolutionary biology, Viral genomes, Seroconversion and Titer. His Microcephaly research integrates issues from Neurogenesis and Epidemiology.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Genomic and epidemiological monitoring of yellow fever virus transmission potential (159 citations)
  • Evolution and epidemic spread of SARS-CoV-2 in Brazil. (157 citations)
  • Serology testing in the COVID-19 pandemic response. (100 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Virus

Amilcar Tanuri mostly deals with Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, Virology, Virus, Zika virus and 2019-20 coronavirus outbreak. His Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 study combines topics in areas such as Epidemic spread, Spike Protein and Virus transmission. His study in Virology focuses on Yellow fever in particular.

The various areas that he examines in his Virus study include Sindbis virus and Dengue fever. His Zika virus research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Pregnancy, Epidemiology, Outbreak, Microcephaly and Cell type. Lineage, Phylogenetic tree, Evolutionary biology and Viral genomes is closely connected to Coronavirus disease 2019 in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of 2019-20 coronavirus outbreak.
