Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Virus
  • Gene
  • Immune system

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Virology, Immunology, Virus, Immune system and Antibody. Her work deals with themes such as Epitope, Immunoglobulin G, Antigen, Immunogenicity and Molecular biology, which intersect with Virology. While the research belongs to areas of Molecular biology, she spends her time largely on the problem of Peptide, intersecting her research to questions surrounding Epitope mapping.

Her Virus study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Vaccinia, Recombinant DNA and Cell culture. Britta Wahren has researched Immune system in several fields, including Adjuvant, Plasmid, Gene and Granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor. The Antibody study combines topics in areas such as Amino acid and Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome.

Her most cited work include:

  • Locked nucleic acid (LNA) mediated improvements in siRNA stability and functionality (488 citations)
  • Cellular cytotoxic response induced by DNA vaccination in HIV-1-infected patients (403 citations)
  • DNA Vaccines: Progress and Challenges (379 citations)

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

Britta Wahren focuses on Virology, Immunology, Virus, Antibody and Antigen. Britta Wahren interconnects Epitope, Molecular biology, Immune system and DNA vaccination in the investigation of issues within Virology. Her Immune system research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Heterologous, Gene and Adjuvant.

Her studies in Virus integrate themes in fields like Vaccinia and Immunopathology. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Amino acid and Recombinant DNA. Her research integrates issues of Cytotoxic T cell, Carcinoembryonic antigen and Lymphocyte proliferation in her study of Antigen.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Virology (73.18%)
  • Immunology (53.63%)
  • Virus (34.64%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2008-2020)?

  • Virology (73.18%)
  • Immunology (53.63%)
  • Antibody (32.77%)

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

Britta Wahren mainly investigates Virology, Immunology, Antibody, Immune system and DNA vaccination. She studies Virology, focusing on Virus in particular. Her Virus research includes themes of Cytotoxic T cell and CD8.

Her study focuses on the intersection of Immunology and fields such as HIV vaccine with connections in the field of Microbicides for sexually transmitted diseases. Her study looks at the intersection of Antibody and topics like Priming with Modified vaccinia Ankara. Her DNA vaccination study combines topics in areas such as Carcinoembryonic antigen, Electroporation and Immunity.

Between 2008 and 2020, her most popular works were:

  • Skin electroporation: effects on transgene expression, DNA persistence and local tissue environment. (126 citations)
  • Broad and potent immune responses to a low dose intradermal HIV-1 DNA boosted with HIV-1 recombinant MVA among healthy adults in Tanzania. (87 citations)
  • Recombinant Modified Vaccinia Ankara (MVA) effectively boosts DNA-primed HIV-specific immune responses in humans despite pre-existing vaccinia immunity. (61 citations)

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

  • Virus
  • Gene
  • Immune system

Her primary areas of investigation include Immunology, Virology, DNA vaccination, Vaccination and Electroporation. Her work carried out in the field of Immunology brings together such families of science as HIV vaccine and Modified vaccinia Ankara. Britta Wahren mostly deals with Virus in her studies of Virology.

Her work focuses on many connections between Virus and other disciplines, such as Vaccinia, that overlap with her field of interest in Thymidine, Peripheral blood mononuclear cell and CD8. Her DNA vaccination research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Carcinoembryonic antigen, Viral load, Immunogenicity and Bioinformatics. The various areas that she examines in her Electroporation study include Plasmid, In vivo and Minicircle.
