Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Virus

Don Ganem mainly focuses on Virology, Virus, Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus, Gene and Lytic cycle. His Virology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Cell culture, Immunology and Kaposi's sarcoma. His studies deal with areas such as RNase P and Genome as well as Virus.

His Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus research includes elements of Molecular biology, MHC class I, Major histocompatibility complex, Transporter associated with antigen processing and Latent Nuclear Antigen. His research in Lytic cycle intersects with topics in Virus latency and Immediate early protein. His studies in Viral replication integrate themes in fields like DNA and Hepatitis B virus.

His most cited work include:

  • Hepatitis B Virus Infection — Natural History and Clinical Consequences (1872 citations)
  • Lytic growth of Kaposi's sarcoma–associated herpesvirus (human herpesvirus 8) in culture (953 citations)
  • The Molecular Biology of the Hepatitis B Viruses (904 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Virology, Molecular biology, Virus, Gene and Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus. His Virology study incorporates themes from Cell culture and Immunology. His work in Molecular biology covers topics such as Duck hepatitis B virus which are related to areas like Duck hepatitis virus.

His research integrates issues of Hepatitis B and Antibody in his study of Virus. His Gene study results in a more complete grasp of Genetics. The Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus study combines topics in areas such as Plasmid, Signal transduction, Latent Nuclear Antigen, Primary effusion lymphoma and Gammaherpesvirinae.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Virology (63.03%)
  • Molecular biology (36.97%)
  • Virus (30.25%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2007-2019)?

  • Virology (63.03%)
  • Lytic cycle (23.11%)
  • Virus (30.25%)

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

His primary areas of study are Virology, Lytic cycle, Virus, Gene and Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus. His Virology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Avian bornavirus, Whole genome sequencing and Antigen. His Lytic cycle research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Virus latency, Gene expression, Cell biology, Transcription and Primary effusion lymphoma.

His Primary effusion lymphoma research includes themes of Molecular biology, Plasmid and Kaposi's sarcoma. The various areas that he examines in his Virus study include Cardiovirus Infections, Prostate, Prostate cancer and Outbreak. His Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus research incorporates themes from Cell culture and Interferon type I.

Between 2007 and 2019, his most popular works were:

  • Temporal Analysis of the Honey Bee Microbiome Reveals Four Novel Viruses and Seasonal Prevalence of Known Viruses, Nosema, and Crithidia (291 citations)
  • Temporal Analysis of the Honey Bee Microbiome Reveals Four Novel Viruses and Seasonal Prevalence of Known Viruses, Nosema, and Crithidia (291 citations)
  • KSHV and the pathogenesis of Kaposi sarcoma: listening to human biology and medicine (282 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Virus

Don Ganem mainly investigates Virology, Genetics, Lytic cycle, Enterovirus and Deep sequencing. His Virology research incorporates elements of Picornavirus and Whole genome sequencing. Don Ganem has researched Picornavirus in several fields, including Virus, Encephalitis and Saffold virus.

His study in Lytic cycle is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus and Messenger RNA, Gene, Untranslated region, Primary effusion lymphoma. His Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Mutation, Plasmid, Immediate early protein and Bacterial artificial chromosome. His research in Primary effusion lymphoma intersects with topics in Kaposi's sarcoma, Herpesviridae and B cell.
