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

Clemens H. M. Kocken focuses on Malaria, Virology, Immunology, Immune system and Vaccination. His Malaria research includes elements of Genetics, Transcriptome and Drug discovery. His work deals with themes such as In vitro, Transgene, Liver stage and Plasmodium vivax Malaria, Plasmodium vivax, which intersect with Virology.

His work on Plasmodium as part of general Immunology research is frequently linked to Mycobacterium tuberculosis, bridging the gap between disciplines. His Immune system study incorporates themes from Adjuvant, Malaria vaccine, Antibody and Antigen. Clemens H. M. Kocken works mostly in the field of Antigen, limiting it down to topics relating to Apical membrane antigen 1 and, in certain cases, QS21, as a part of the same area of interest.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Prevention of tuberculosis infection and disease by local BCG in repeatedly exposed rhesus macaques. (93 citations)
  • Transcriptomic analysis reveals reduced transcriptional activity in the malaria parasite Plasmodium cynomolgi during progression into dormancy. (17 citations)
  • The Plasmodium Liver-Specific Protein 2 (LISP2) is an early marker of liver stage development. (16 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Genetics

Malaria, Virology, In vitro, Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Immunology are his primary areas of study. His Malaria study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Infectious disease, Genetics, Transcriptome and Drug discovery. Clemens H. M. Kocken has researched Drug discovery in several fields, including Transcription, Gene and Plasmodium falciparum, Malaria transmission.

His work deals with themes such as Plasmodium vivax, Tafenoquine, Plasmodium cynomolgi, Immunofluorescence and In vivo, which intersect with Virology. His study in In vitro is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Schizogony and Molecular marker. His study in the field of Tuberculosis Disease also crosses realms of Antibody response, Cytokine, Innate immune system and Immune system.
