Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Statistics
  • Botany

His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Metapopulation, Biodiversity, Rhizoctonia solani and Biological dispersal. Christopher A. Gilligan undertakes multidisciplinary investigations into Ecology and Secondary infection in his work. His Metapopulation research integrates issues from Epidemiology, Bubonic plague, Disease, Quarantine and Yersinia pestis.

His Biodiversity research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Soil water and Forest ecology, Ecosystem, Ecosystem services. He studied Rhizoctonia solani and Mycelium that intersect with Colonization, Soil structure, Agronomy and Antiserum. His work on Hyperparasite as part of general Host study is frequently linked to Neighbourhood, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science.

His most cited work include:

  • Importance of food-demand management for climate mitigation (351 citations)
  • The Consequence of Tree Pests and Diseases for Ecosystem Services (266 citations)
  • Biodiversity and ecosystem function in soil (215 citations)

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

Ecology, Rhizoctonia solani, Host, Botany and Agronomy are his primary areas of study. Christopher A. Gilligan integrates Ecology and Secondary infection in his studies. His Rhizoctonia solani research incorporates elements of Veterinary medicine, Soil water, Fungi imperfecti and Mycelium.

Christopher A. Gilligan merges Host with Plant disease in his research. Botany is closely attributed to Horticulture in his work. Christopher A. Gilligan is involved in the study of Agronomy that focuses on Crop in particular.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (37.60%)
  • Rhizoctonia solani (14.80%)
  • Host (13.60%)

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

  • Disease (10.40%)
  • Outbreak (8.80%)
  • Ecology (37.60%)

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

Christopher A. Gilligan spends much of his time researching Disease, Outbreak, Ecology, Control and Vector. His Disease study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Biotechnology, Intensive care medicine and Environmental health. His Outbreak research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Chemical control, Infectious Disease Epidemiology, Risk analysis and Disease surveillance.

His Ecology study typically links adjacent topics like Biological dispersal. His Control research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Externality, Woodland and Risk of infection. Christopher A. Gilligan has included themes like Pathogen, Plant virus, Virus, Aphid and Whitefly in his Vector study.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • A modelling framework to assess the likely effectiveness of facemasks in combination with 'lock-down' in managing the COVID-19 pandemic (107 citations)
  • Control fast or control smart: When should invading pathogens be controlled? (27 citations)
  • Viral Manipulation of Plant Stress Responses and Host Interactions With Insects (26 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Statistics
  • Botany

Christopher A. Gilligan mostly deals with Aphid, Virus, Disease, Outbreak and Control. The various areas that Christopher A. Gilligan examines in his Disease study include Biotechnology and Intensive care medicine. In his research on the topic of Outbreak, Software deployment is strongly related with Risk analysis.

Christopher A. Gilligan combines subjects such as Key, Knapsack problem and Operations research with his study of Control. The concepts of his Transmission study are interwoven with issues in Begomovirus and Genetics, Host. His Vector research includes themes of Zoology, Ecology, Arthropod mouthparts, Pathogen and Biological dispersal.
