Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Virus
  • Immune system

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Virology, Simian immunodeficiency virus, Immunology, Cytotoxic T cell and Virus. His research in Virology intersects with topics in Epitope and CTL*, MHC class I, CD8. His Simian immunodeficiency virus research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Immunodeficiency, Viremia, Viral load, Viral replication and Major histocompatibility complex.

His Immunology research incorporates elements of HIV vaccine, AIDS Vaccines and Macaque. His Cytotoxic T cell study incorporates themes from T lymphocyte and Antigen. His Virus research includes themes of Vaccinia, Immunodominance and Cellular immunity.

His most cited work include:

  • Tat-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes select for SIV escape variants during resolution of primary viraemia. (673 citations)
  • Nomenclature for the major histocompatibility complexes of different species: a proposal (501 citations)
  • HIV and SIV CTL escape: implications for vaccine design. (461 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Virology, Simian immunodeficiency virus, Immunology, MHC class I and Major histocompatibility complex. His work deals with themes such as Epitope, Cytotoxic T cell and CD8, which intersect with Virology. His work carried out in the field of Simian immunodeficiency virus brings together such families of science as Macaque, HIV vaccine, AIDS Vaccines, CTL* and Lentivirus.

His Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome research extends to the thematically linked field of Immunology. His study in MHC class I is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Peptide binding, Saguinus oedipus, Pseudogene and Rhesus macaque. The concepts of his Major histocompatibility complex study are interwoven with issues in Molecular biology and Nonsynonymous substitution.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Virology (65.71%)
  • Simian immunodeficiency virus (42.22%)
  • Immunology (40.32%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2021)?

  • Virology (65.71%)
  • Simian immunodeficiency virus (42.22%)
  • Antibody (12.06%)

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

David I. Watkins mostly deals with Virology, Simian immunodeficiency virus, Antibody, Virus and Immunology. His Virology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as CD8 and Immune system. His CD8 research incorporates themes from T cell, Epitope, Cytotoxic T cell, Major histocompatibility complex and Rhesus macaque.

His Simian immunodeficiency virus research includes elements of Heterologous, Viral vector, Vaccine efficacy and Group-specific antigen. His Virus research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Human leukocyte antigen, CTL*, Recombinant DNA and B cell. Specifically, his work in Immunology is concerned with the study of Vaccination.

Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Highly potent HIV-specific antibody neutralization in vitro translates into effective protection against mucosal SHIV challenge in vivo (350 citations)
  • Genomic epidemiology reveals multiple introductions of Zika virus into the United States. (209 citations)
  • Vaccine-induced CD8 + T cells control AIDS virus replication (145 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Virus
  • Immune system

Virology, Zika virus, Virus, Viral replication and Immunology are his primary areas of study. His Virology research integrates issues from Cytotoxic T cell and Antibody. David I. Watkins interconnects Epitope, Ex vivo and CD8 in the investigation of issues within Cytotoxic T cell.

His work on Simian immunodeficiency virus expands to the thematically related Viral replication. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Spleen, CTL* and Macaque. His research in Immunology is mostly concerned with Viral load.
