2014 - Fellow of the American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene (ASTMH)

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Malaria
  • Internal medicine
  • Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome

Bernard L. Nahlen mainly focuses on Malaria, Immunology, Plasmodium falciparum, Mosquito net and Epidemiology. His Malaria research incorporates elements of Incidence, Environmental health, El Niño, Pediatrics and Anemia. His work deals with themes such as Child mortality and Vaccine efficacy, which intersect with Environmental health.

His Immunology study incorporates themes from Low birth weight and Obstetrics. His research investigates the link between Plasmodium falciparum and topics such as Antibody that cross with problems in Immune system and Antigen. His study looks at the intersection of Epidemiology and topics like Cerebral Malaria with Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Single-strand conformation polymorphism and Odds ratio.

His most cited work include:

  • The burden of malaria in pregnancy in malaria-endemic areas. (880 citations)
  • Relation between severe malaria morbidity in children and level of Plasmodium falciparum transmission in Africa (584 citations)
  • Relation between severe malaria morbidity in children and level of Plasmodium falciparum transmission in Africa (584 citations)

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

Bernard L. Nahlen spends much of his time researching Malaria, Immunology, Plasmodium falciparum, Pediatrics and Parasitemia. His work on Sulfadoxine as part of general Malaria research is frequently linked to Mosquito net, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science. His research integrates issues of Placenta and Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome in his study of Immunology.

Bernard L. Nahlen interconnects Genetic diversity, Allele, Antigen and Virology in the investigation of issues within Plasmodium falciparum. The study incorporates disciplines such as Cross-sectional study, Anemia, Cohort and Malnutrition in addition to Pediatrics. The Parasitemia study combines topics in areas such as Cytokine and Interleukin 10.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Malaria (97.13%)
  • Immunology (60.92%)
  • Plasmodium falciparum (41.38%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2007-2017)?

  • Malaria (97.13%)
  • Plasmodium falciparum (41.38%)
  • Immunology (60.92%)

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

His main research concerns Malaria, Plasmodium falciparum, Immunology, Environmental health and Virology. His Malaria research includes themes of Risk analysis and Haplotype. His Plasmodium falciparum study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Drug resistance and Genetic diversity.

His research in Immunology intersects with topics in Gene, Allele and Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. His research integrates issues of Psychological intervention, Pregnancy and Demographic surveillance system in his study of Environmental health. His work carried out in the field of Virology brings together such families of science as Antigen and Holoendemic.

Between 2007 and 2017, his most popular works were:

  • Profile: The KEMRI/CDC Health and Demographic Surveillance System—Western Kenya (146 citations)
  • Lives saved by Global Fund-supported HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria programs: estimation approach and results between 2003 and end-2007 (83 citations)
  • Temporal trends of sulphadoxine-pyrimethamine (SP) drug-resistance molecular markers in Plasmodium falciparum parasites from pregnant women in western Kenya (59 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome
  • Malaria

Bernard L. Nahlen focuses on Immunology, Malaria, Parasitology, Plasmodium falciparum and Tuberculosis. T lymphocyte, Cytokine, CD8, Interferon gamma and Immune system are the primary areas of interest in his Immunology study. His work in the fields of Malaria, such as Malaria control, overlaps with other areas such as Financial management.

Many of his Parasitology research pursuits overlap with Drug resistance, Epidemiology, Tropical medicine, Seroconversion and Seroprevalence. His Plasmodium falciparum study typically links adjacent topics like Virology. Bernard L. Nahlen integrates many fields, such as Tuberculosis, Verbal autopsy, Health care, Environmental health, Total fertility rate and Disease, in his works.
