Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Virus
  • Disease
  • Gene

His primary areas of investigation include Virology, Dengue fever, Virus, Flavivirus and Dengue virus. His research in Virology intersects with topics in Genetics and Immunology. Douglas M. Watts has included themes like Viral disease, Serotype, Immunohistochemistry and Serology in his Dengue fever study.

His Virus research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Taxon and Genome. His Flavivirus study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Flaviviridae, Culex tritaeniorhynchus, Aedes albopictus, Subgenus and Antibody. His work carried out in the field of Dengue virus brings together such families of science as Epidemiology, Antigen, Polyclonal antibodies, Molecular biology and Virus quantification.

His most cited work include:

  • Dengue Virus Structural Differences That Correlate with Pathogenesis (536 citations)
  • Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever: history, epidemiology, pathogenesis, clinical syndrome and genetic diversity. (369 citations)
  • Failure of secondary infection with American genotype dengue 2 to cause dengue haemorrhagic fever (271 citations)

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

Virology, Virus, Dengue fever, Immunology and Antibody are his primary areas of study. His work on Serology expands to the thematically related Virology. His Virus research includes themes of Transmission and Prevalence.

The Dengue fever study combines topics in areas such as Arbovirus, Vector, Yellow fever and Serotype. His Immunology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Syphilis, Epidemiology and Chills. His Antibody research incorporates elements of Infectivity, Western blot and Antigen.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Virology (76.16%)
  • Virus (36.63%)
  • Dengue fever (21.51%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Virology (76.16%)
  • Enzootic (7.56%)
  • Transmission (9.88%)

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

Douglas M. Watts focuses on Virology, Enzootic, Transmission, Chikungunya and Rift Valley fever. His Virology study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Antibody. His Enzootic research integrates issues from Plaque reduction neutralization test, Seroprevalence and Outbreak.

His studies examine the connections between Transmission and genetics, as well as such issues in Sylvatic cycle, with regards to Herd immunity and Host. The concepts of his Rift Valley fever study are interwoven with issues in Attenuated vaccine, Antibody titer and Immunogenicity. His studies deal with areas such as RNA, RNA-dependent RNA polymerase, Rhabdoviridae and Dengue virus as well as Flavivirus.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Role of monkeys in the sylvatic cycle of chikungunya virus in Senegal (28 citations)
  • Role of monkeys in the sylvatic cycle of chikungunya virus in Senegal (28 citations)
  • Characterization of Three New Insect-Specific Flaviviruses: Their Relationship to the Mosquito-Borne Flavivirus Pathogens. (25 citations)

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

  • Virus
  • Disease
  • Gene

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Virology, Flavivirus, Arbovirus, Sylvatic cycle and Chikungunya. His research in Virology is mostly concerned with Dengue virus. His Dengue virus research focuses on Infectivity and how it connects with Rhabdoviridae.

His study in Arbovirus is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Transmission, Enzootic, Host and Herd immunity. The various areas that Douglas M. Watts examines in his Sequence analysis study include Serotype, Virus classification, Genome, Orthobunyavirus and Cache-Valley virus. Douglas M. Watts has researched Insect in several fields, including Tropical medicine, Key and Culex flavivirus.
