Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Ecology

André Théron focuses on Schistosoma mansoni, Zoology, Biomphalaria glabrata, Ecology and Snail. His Schistosoma mansoni research incorporates themes from Trematoda and Genetics, Host. His research in Zoology intersects with topics in Biological dispersal, Helminth genetics and Intermediate host.

His research integrates issues of Proteome and Innate immune system, Immune system in his study of Biomphalaria glabrata. His work on Freshwater mollusc expands to the thematically related Ecology. In Snail, André Théron works on issues like Planorbidae, which are connected to Genetic marker and Microbiology.

His most cited work include:

  • Speciation in parasites: a population genetics approach. (171 citations)
  • Behaviours in trematode cercariae that enhance parasite transmission: patterns and processes. (146 citations)
  • Excretory-secretory proteome of larval Schistosoma mansoni and Echinostoma caproni, two parasites of Biomphalaria glabrata. (120 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Schistosoma mansoni, Zoology, Ecology, Trematoda and Biomphalaria glabrata. His study in Schistosoma mansoni is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Genetics and Host. André Théron has researched Zoology in several fields, including Genetic variability, Genetic structure, Population genetics and Parasitism.

His Ecology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Fasciola hepatica, Bulinus truncatus and Bulinus. His Trematoda study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Intraspecific competition, Genetic diversity, Intermediate host, Schistosoma and Schistosoma haematobium. His research investigates the connection between Biomphalaria glabrata and topics such as Snail that intersect with problems in Planorbidae, Pathogen and Genetic marker.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Schistosoma mansoni (70.69%)
  • Zoology (47.41%)
  • Ecology (43.10%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2017)?

  • Schistosoma mansoni (70.69%)
  • Snail (37.07%)
  • Biomphalaria glabrata (41.38%)

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

André Théron mostly deals with Schistosoma mansoni, Snail, Biomphalaria glabrata, Schistosomiasis and Genetics. His work carried out in the field of Schistosoma mansoni brings together such families of science as Evolutionary biology, Molecular biology and Chronotype. André Théron performs integrative study on Snail and Infectivity.

His Biomphalaria glabrata study combines topics in areas such as Pathogen and Biomphalaria. His Schistosomiasis research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Ecology, Intermediate host and Microbiology. His Ecology research integrates issues from Freshwater mollusc and Hepatica, Fasciola hepatica.

Between 2011 and 2017, his most popular works were:

  • Compatibility polymorphism in snail/schistosome interactions: From field to theory to molecular mechanisms. (83 citations)
  • Compatibility polymorphism in snail/schistosome interactions: From field to theory to molecular mechanisms. (83 citations)
  • A Shift from Cellular to Humoral Responses Contributes to Innate Immune Memory in the Vector Snail Biomphalaria glabrata (68 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Ecology

His primary scientific interests are in Snail, Biomphalaria glabrata, Schistosoma mansoni, Genetics and Immunology. The study incorporates disciplines such as Phenotype, Functional studies, Biomphalaria and Schistosomiasis in addition to Snail. The concepts of his Biomphalaria study are interwoven with issues in Vector, Innate immune system, Immune system, Immunity and Neuroscience.

His Schistosomiasis research incorporates elements of Tropical medicine and Intermediate host. Genetics is represented through his Experimental evolution, Genetic variation, Allele and Balancing selection research. With his scientific publications, his incorporates both Compatibility and Helminth protein.
