Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Virus
  • Gene
  • Disease

Eric M. Leroy mostly deals with Virology, Ebola virus, Virus, Outbreak and Mononegavirales. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Zoology, Phylogenetics and Immunology. The study incorporates disciplines such as Immunoglobulin G and Disease reservoir in addition to Ebola virus.

His work on Hepatitis B virus and Orthohepadnavirus as part of his general Virus study is frequently connected to Indian ocean and Tiger mosquito, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. His Outbreak research integrates issues from Transmission, Duiker, Hemorrhagic Fevers and Microbiology. His research in Mononegavirales intersects with topics in Taxonomy, Filoviridae and Ebola Hemorrhagic Fever.

His most cited work include:

  • Fruit bats as reservoirs of Ebola virus (1090 citations)
  • Multiple Ebola Virus Transmission Events and Rapid Decline of Central African Wildlife (521 citations)
  • Zika Virus in Gabon (Central Africa) – 2007: A New Threat from Aedes albopictus? (458 citations)

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

Eric M. Leroy spends much of his time researching Virology, Outbreak, Virus, Ebola virus and Immunology. His Virology study frequently draws connections to other fields, such as Antibody. His Outbreak research focuses on Veterinary medicine and how it relates to Seroprevalence.

The concepts of his Virus study are interwoven with issues in Zoology, Genotype and Phylogenetic tree. His Ebola virus study incorporates themes from Natural reservoir, Immunoglobulin G and Disease reservoir. His Filoviridae research includes themes of Virus classification and Marburgvirus.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Virology (55.97%)
  • Outbreak (24.69%)
  • Virus (22.63%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Virology (55.97%)
  • Composite material (2.47%)
  • Evolutionary biology (6.58%)

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

Eric M. Leroy focuses on Virology, Composite material, Evolutionary biology, Genome and Coronavirus disease 2019. His Virology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Antibody and Phylogenetics. His studies deal with areas such as Reassortment, Viral metagenomics, Order Mononegavirales, Rotavirus and Taxonomy as well as Evolutionary biology.

His Outbreak research includes elements of Microcephaly and Zika virus. His Ebola virus research incorporates themes from Plasmodium falciparum, Malaria, Epidemiology and Surveillance study. His Zaire ebolavirus study in the realm of Virus interacts with subjects such as Gorilla.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Taxonomy of the order Mononegavirales: update 2019. (87 citations)
  • The risk of SARS-CoV-2 transmission to pets and other wild and domestic animals strongly mandates a one-health strategy to control the COVID-19 pandemic. (60 citations)
  • Taxonomy of the order Mononegavirales: second update 2018 (45 citations)

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

  • Virus
  • Gene
  • Disease

His primary areas of investigation include Virology, Taxonomy, Order Mononegavirales, Evolutionary biology and Genome. His study in Virology focuses on Virus and 2019-20 coronavirus outbreak. In his study, Outbreak is strongly linked to Vector, which falls under the umbrella field of Virus.

His Outbreak study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Infectivity, Pathogenicity, Myocarditis and Immunology. He interconnects Taxon, Phylogenetics and Mononegavirales in the investigation of issues within Taxonomy. His Genome research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Sequence analysis, Incidence and Genotype.
