Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Immune system
  • Antibody

Bruce S. Klein spends much of his time researching Microbiology, Blastomyces dermatitidis, Immunology, Virulence and Immunity. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Antigen, Yeast, Dimorphic fungus and Fungal protein. The subject of his Blastomyces dermatitidis research is within the realm of Blastomycosis.

He combines subjects such as Neuropeptide and Receptor with his study of Immunology. His research in Virulence tackles topics such as Cell wall which are related to areas like Integrin alpha M and Ligand. Bruce S. Klein studies Immunity, namely Fungal vaccine.

His most cited work include:

  • Recognition by human V gamma 9/V delta 2 T cells of a GroEL homolog on Daudi Burkitt's lymphoma cells (316 citations)
  • Global Control of Dimorphism and Virulence in Fungi (293 citations)
  • Isolation of Blastomyces dermatitidis in soil associated with a large outbreak of blastomycosis in Wisconsin. (264 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Microbiology, Blastomyces dermatitidis, Immunology, Immune system and Immunity. The Microbiology study combines topics in areas such as Virology, Cellular immunity, Antigen, Yeast and Virulence. Bruce S. Klein has included themes like Bacterial adhesin, Fungal protein and Dimorphic fungus in his Blastomyces dermatitidis study.

His Immunology research includes elements of Cytotoxic T cell and Cellular differentiation. His Immune system study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Inflammation, Proinflammatory cytokine and Disease. Bruce S. Klein has researched Immunity in several fields, including Coccidioides posadasii, Coccidioides, CD8 and Vaccination.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Microbiology (45.50%)
  • Blastomyces dermatitidis (39.68%)
  • Immunology (38.10%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Microbiology (45.50%)
  • Immune system (26.46%)
  • Immunology (38.10%)

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

Microbiology, Immune system, Immunology, Blastomyces and Immunity are his primary areas of study. His Microbiology research includes themes of Cellular immunity, Antibody and Virulence. His research integrates issues of Viability assay, Disease and Yeast in his study of Immune system.

His Blastomyces research entails a greater understanding of Blastomyces dermatitidis. His Blastomyces dermatitidis research is under the purview of Blastomycosis. In his research, Vaccination is intimately related to Antigen, which falls under the overarching field of Immunity.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Pulmonary neuroendocrine cells amplify allergic asthma responses (122 citations)
  • Aspergillus fumigatus Copper Export Machinery and Reactive Oxygen Intermediate Defense Counter Host Copper-Mediated Oxidative Antimicrobial Offense (63 citations)
  • Clinical Manifestations and Treatment of Blastomycosis. (60 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Immune system
  • Antibody

His scientific interests lie mostly in Microbiology, Immune system, Immunology, Receptor and Innate immune system. His research in Microbiology intersects with topics in Gene, Locus and Fungal protein. His Immune system study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Inflammation, gamma-Aminobutyric acid and Neuropeptide, Calcitonin gene-related peptide.

His Inflammation research integrates issues from Major histocompatibility complex, Antigen, Adoptive cell transfer, Macrophage and Antigen presentation. His study on Immunity and C-type lectin is often connected to Pneumocystis carinii and Pneumocystis pneumonia as part of broader study in Immunology. The Immunity study combines topics in areas such as Chemokine and Lung epithelium.
