Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Virus
  • Disease
  • Statistics

Derek A. T. Cummings mostly deals with Dengue fever, Immunology, Virology, Dengue virus and Environmental health. Derek A. T. Cummings interconnects Internal medicine and Coronavirus in the investigation of issues within Immunology. Derek A. T. Cummings combines subjects such as Natural history and Disease with his study of Virology.

His Dengue virus research incorporates themes from Serotype, Epidemiology and Healthcare system. The various areas that Derek A. T. Cummings examines in his Environmental health study include Incidence, Dengue haemorrhagic fever, Influenza A virus, Public health and Pandemic. His Pandemic research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Influenza A virus subtype H5N1, Isolation and Quarantine.

His most cited work include:

  • Strategies for mitigating an influenza pandemic (1629 citations)
  • Strategies for containing an emerging influenza pandemic in Southeast Asia (1507 citations)
  • Containing pandemic influenza at the source. (1037 citations)

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

His main research concerns Dengue fever, Virology, Dengue virus, Immunology and Transmission. His Dengue fever research includes themes of Force of infection, Vector and Incidence. Derek A. T. Cummings has researched Dengue virus in several fields, including Serotype and Neutralizing antibody.

His Transmission research integrates issues from Odds, Seroprevalence and Disease. His study explores the link between Outbreak and topics such as Public health that cross with problems in Data science. His research in Pandemic intersects with topics in Influenza A virus, Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 and Basic reproduction number.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Dengue fever (32.19%)
  • Virology (27.05%)
  • Dengue virus (22.60%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Pandemic (13.70%)
  • Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (7.53%)
  • Coronavirus disease 2019 (6.51%)

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

Derek A. T. Cummings spends much of his time researching Pandemic, Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, Coronavirus disease 2019, Transmission and Coronavirus. His Pandemic research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Mortality rate, Host, Risk analysis, Public health and Human studies. His work in Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 addresses issues such as Basic reproduction number, which are connected to fields such as Case ascertainment.

His Transmission research incorporates elements of Environmental health, Odds, Immunity, Vaccination and Risk of infection. His research investigates the connection with Vaccination and areas like Internal medicine which intersect with concerns in Seroconversion. The study incorporates disciplines such as Surveillance data and Dengue fever in addition to Incidence.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Novel coronavirus 2019-nCoV: early estimation of epidemiological parameters and epidemic predictions (553 citations)
  • A systematic review of antibody mediated immunity to coronaviruses: kinetics, correlates of protection, and association with severity. (237 citations)
  • A systematic review of antibody mediated immunity to coronaviruses: Antibody kinetics, correlates of protection, and association of antibody responses with severity of disease (189 citations)

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

  • Virus
  • Disease
  • Statistics

His primary scientific interests are in Coronavirus, Transmission, Pandemic, Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 and Disease. His Transmission study combines topics in areas such as Odds, Immunity, Vaccination, Dengue virus and Zika virus. Derek A. T. Cummings works mostly in the field of Vaccination, limiting it down to topics relating to Internal medicine and, in certain cases, Seroconversion, as a part of the same area of interest.

His Pandemic study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Environmental health, Young adult, Mortality rate, Seroprevalence and Data science. Derek A. T. Cummings has included themes like Disease burden, Basic reproduction number, Confidence interval and Case ascertainment in his Environmental health study. His Disease research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Clinical study design, Public health, Seroepidemiologic Studies and Risk analysis.
