1994 - Fellow of the American Academy of Microbiology Mycobacteriology

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Immune system
  • Gene
  • Internal medicine

His main research concerns Immunology, Tuberculosis, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Polyunsaturated fatty acid and Biochemistry. His Immunology research integrates issues from Tuberculosis vaccines and Cytotoxic T cell. His Tuberculosis research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Spleen, Disease and Virology.

His studies deal with areas such as Antibiotics, Guinea pig, Lung, Drug resistance and Drug as well as Mycobacterium tuberculosis. David N. McMurray interconnects Unsaturated fatty acid, Endocrinology, Cell growth and Inflammation, Internal medicine in the investigation of issues within Polyunsaturated fatty acid. His Biochemistry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Corn oil and Cell biology.

His most cited work include:

  • A small-molecule nitroimidazopyran drug candidate for the treatment of tuberculosis. (781 citations)
  • Tuberculous granulomas are hypoxic in guinea pigs, rabbits, and nonhuman primates. (474 citations)
  • The relationship between malnutrition and tuberculosis: evidence from studies in humans and experimental animals (409 citations)

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

David N. McMurray mostly deals with Immunology, Tuberculosis, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Immune system and Guinea pig. His Tuberculosis study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Disease and Virology. His study on Mycobacterium tuberculosis also encompasses disciplines like

  • Microbiology that intertwine with fields like Mycobacterium bovis and Virulence,
  • Lung, which have a strong connection to Pathology.

The concepts of his Immune system study are interwoven with issues in Endocrinology, Antibody and Internal medicine, Lymphocyte. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Eicosapentaenoic acid, Docosahexaenoic acid and Polyunsaturated fatty acid. The various areas that he examines in his Polyunsaturated fatty acid study include Inflammation, Lipid raft and T cell.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Immunology (55.90%)
  • Tuberculosis (31.94%)
  • Mycobacterium tuberculosis (30.56%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2009-2020)?

  • Immunology (55.90%)
  • Tuberculosis (31.94%)
  • Mycobacterium tuberculosis (30.56%)

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

David N. McMurray spends much of his time researching Immunology, Tuberculosis, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Polyunsaturated fatty acid and Virology. His study in Immune system, Colitis, Inflammation, Cytokine and Immunity falls within the category of Immunology. The study incorporates disciplines such as Cohort study, Micronutrient, Vaccination, Socioeconomic status and Virulence in addition to Tuberculosis.

His Mycobacterium tuberculosis study combines topics in areas such as Incidence, Guinea pig, Microbiology, Tuberculin and Macrophage. His research on Polyunsaturated fatty acid concerns the broader Biochemistry. His Virology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Tuberculosis vaccines and Immunization, DNA vaccination.

Between 2009 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Regulatory activity of polyunsaturated fatty acids in T-cell signaling (103 citations)
  • Dietary n-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids (PUFA) Decrease Obesity-Associated Th17 Cell-Mediated Inflammation during Colitis (64 citations)
  • Dietary n-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids (PUFA) Decrease Obesity-Associated Th17 Cell-Mediated Inflammation during Colitis (64 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Immune system
  • Internal medicine

David N. McMurray focuses on Immunology, Polyunsaturated fatty acid, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Cytokine and Inflammation. His Immunology study frequently draws connections to other fields, such as Tuberculosis. David N. McMurray studied Tuberculosis and Immunity that intersect with Tuberculosis vaccines, Virology, MEDLINE and Lymphocyte subsets.

His Polyunsaturated fatty acid research is under the purview of Biochemistry. His Mycobacterium tuberculosis research includes elements of Macrophage, Disease and Microbiology. His research investigates the connection between Inflammation and topics such as Colitis that intersect with problems in Endocrinology, Chemokine receptor, Spleen and C-C chemokine receptor type 6.
