Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

Gene
Virus
RNA

His scientific interests lie mostly in Virology, Virus, Interferon, Influenza A virus and Molecular biology. His research in Virology tackles topics such as Virulence which are related to areas like Immune system. The Virus study combines topics in areas such as Recombinant virus and Gene.

His Interferon study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Signal transduction, DEAD Box Protein 58, MDA5 and Interferon regulatory factors. His studies in Influenza A virus integrate themes in fields like VP40, Nucleoprotein and Viral transformation. His Molecular biology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Vero cell, MAPK14, Newcastle disease, RNA silencing and Phosphorylation.

His most cited work include:

Characterization of the reconstructed 1918 Spanish influenza pandemic virus (986 citations)
Activation of Interferon Regulatory Factor 3 Is Inhibited by the Influenza A Virus NS1 Protein (526 citations)
Genomic analysis of increased host immune and cell death responses induced by 1918 influenza virus (465 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Virology, Virus, Ebola virus, Interferon and Viral replication. In his work, Immunity is strongly intertwined with Innate immune system, which is a subfield of Virology. His study on Influenza A virus, Hemagglutinin and Orthomyxoviridae is often connected to H5N1 genetic structure as part of broader study in Virus.

His work carried out in the field of Ebola virus brings together such families of science as Polymerase, Filoviridae, Nucleoprotein and Cell biology. In his research on the topic of Interferon, RNA silencing is strongly related with RNA-binding protein. His Viral replication research incorporates themes from RNA and Viral protein.

He most often published in these fields:

Virology (82.30%)
Virus (35.41%)
Ebola virus (32.54%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

Virology (82.30%)
Ebola virus (32.54%)
Virus (35.41%)

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

His main research concerns Virology, Ebola virus, Virus, Interferon and Marburg virus. His study of VP40 is a part of Virology. His study in Ebola virus is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both RNA, Filoviridae, Genome, Nucleoprotein and Viral replication.

Many of his research projects under Virus are closely connected to Trizol with Trizol, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. The concepts of his Interferon study are interwoven with issues in Ubiquitin, Receptor, Antagonism, N-terminus and MDA5. The study incorporates disciplines such as Antibody and Virulence in addition to Marburg virus.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

Comparative host-coronavirus protein interaction networks reveal pan-viral disease mechanisms. (87 citations)
Taxonomy of the order Mononegavirales: update 2019. (87 citations)
Taxonomy of the order Mononegavirales: second update 2018 (45 citations)

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

Gene
Virus
RNA

Christopher F. Basler mainly focuses on Virology, Virus, Ebola virus, Evolutionary biology and Order Mononegavirales. His work on Genome expands to the thematically related Virology. Christopher F. Basler studies Virus, focusing on Viral replication in particular.

The various areas that Christopher F. Basler examines in his Viral replication study include Vero cell, Nucleoprotein and Endocytosis. His Ebola virus research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of RIG-I, Interferon and Small molecule. Christopher F. Basler combines subjects such as Taxonomy, Phylogenetics and Mononegavirales with his study of Evolutionary biology.
