Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Bacteria
  • Gene
  • DNA

His primary areas of investigation include Typing, Microbiology, Genetics, Staphylococcal infections and Multilocus sequence typing. His Typing study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Molecular epidemiology, DNA profiling, Database and Staphylococcus aureus. Dag Harmsen works in the field of Microbiology, focusing on Serotype in particular.

Genetics is a component of his Ribosomal DNA and Phylogenetics studies. His work carried out in the field of Ribosomal DNA brings together such families of science as Ribosomal RNA and 16S ribosomal RNA. His studies deal with areas such as Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Sequence analysis as well as Staphylococcal infections.

His most cited work include:

  • Typing of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus in a university hospital setting by using novel software for spa repeat determination and database management (1329 citations)
  • Prospective Genomic Characterization of the German Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli O104:H4 Outbreak by Rapid Next Generation Sequencing Technology (615 citations)
  • Geographic Distribution of Staphylococcus aureus Causing Invasive Infections in Europe: A Molecular-Epidemiological Analysis (431 citations)

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

Genetics, Typing, Microbiology, Multilocus sequence typing and Genome are his primary areas of study. His research related to Sequence analysis, 16S ribosomal RNA, Gene, Ribosomal RNA and DNA sequencing might be considered part of Genetics. Dag Harmsen interconnects Whole genome sequencing, Staphylococcus aureus, Genotyping, Molecular epidemiology and Computational biology in the investigation of issues within Typing.

His research in Staphylococcus aureus intersects with topics in Algorithm and Epidemiology. The Microbiology study combines topics in areas such as Staphylococcal infections, Virulence and Escherichia coli. His Multilocus sequence typing research integrates issues from Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Multiple Loci VNTR Analysis, Outbreak and Reference genome.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (44.79%)
  • Typing (35.42%)
  • Microbiology (33.33%)

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

  • Genome (19.79%)
  • Multilocus sequence typing (33.33%)
  • Typing (35.42%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Genome, Multilocus sequence typing, Typing, Genetics and Computational biology. His Genome research incorporates elements of Genotyping and Outbreak. His study looks at the relationship between Multilocus sequence typing and topics such as SNP array, which overlap with Multiple Loci VNTR Analysis.

His research integrates issues of Molecular epidemiology and Whole genome sequencing in his study of Typing. His work deals with themes such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex, Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Locus, which intersect with Molecular epidemiology. His Computational biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Clostridium difficile and Clade.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Defining and Evaluating a Core Genome Multilocus Sequence Typing Scheme for Genome-Wide Typing of Clostridium difficile. (32 citations)
  • Harmonized Genome Wide Typing of Tubercle Bacilli Using a Web-Based Gene-By-Gene Nomenclature System (22 citations)
  • The antibiotic resistome and microbiota landscape of refugees from Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan in Germany. (22 citations)
