Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Bacteria
  • Disease

Immunology, Microbiology, Entamoeba histolytica, Diarrhea and Cryptosporidium are his primary areas of study. His Immunology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Feces, Environmental enteropathy and Malnutrition. He focuses mostly in the field of Microbiology, narrowing it down to topics relating to Multiplex and, in certain cases, Real-time polymerase chain reaction and Norovirus.

Eric R. Houpt is interested in Rotavirus, which is a branch of Diarrhea. The study incorporates disciplines such as Campylobacter and Etiology in addition to Rotavirus. His research integrates issues of Cryptosporidium parvum, Internal medicine and Shigella in his study of Cryptosporidium.

His most cited work include:

  • Gut microbiomes of Malawian twin pairs discordant for kwashiorkor (776 citations)
  • Pathogen-specific burdens of community diarrhoea in developing countries: a multisite birth cohort study (MAL-ED). (466 citations)
  • A review of the global burden, novel diagnostics, therapeutics, and vaccine targets for cryptosporidium (427 citations)

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

Eric R. Houpt mainly focuses on Diarrhea, Internal medicine, Microbiology, Immunology and Virology. His Diarrhea research incorporates themes from Shigella, Incidence, Etiology and Cryptosporidium. The concepts of his Internal medicine study are interwoven with issues in Gastroenterology and Tuberculosis.

His Microbiology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Real-time polymerase chain reaction, Multiplex and Polymerase chain reaction. In his study, Environmental health and Cohort study is inextricably linked to Malnutrition, which falls within the broad field of Immunology. The Virology study combines topics in areas such as TaqMan, Genotyping, Genotype and Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Diarrhea (26.64%)
  • Internal medicine (26.20%)
  • Microbiology (25.76%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Internal medicine (26.20%)
  • Diarrhea (26.64%)
  • Shigella (13.10%)

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

Eric R. Houpt mostly deals with Internal medicine, Diarrhea, Shigella, Rotavirus and TaqMan. His research in Internal medicine intersects with topics in Tuberculosis, Shigellosis and Azithromycin. His Tuberculosis research focuses on Immunology and how it relates to Peripheral blood mononuclear cell.

Eric R. Houpt interconnects Incidence, Cryptosporidium, Norovirus, Etiology and Polymerase chain reaction in the investigation of issues within Diarrhea. His work deals with themes such as Gastroenterology, Campylobacter, Shigella flexneri, Vaccine efficacy and Dysentery, which intersect with Shigella. His Rotavirus study incorporates themes from Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli and Vaccination.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Morbidity and mortality due to shigella and enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli diarrhoea: the Global Burden of Disease Study 1990-2016. (132 citations)
  • Use of quantitative molecular diagnostic methods to investigate the effect of enteropathogen infections on linear growth in children in low-resource settings: Longitudinal analysis of results from the MAL-ED cohort study (109 citations)
  • Morbidity, mortality, and long-term consequences associated with diarrhoea from Cryptosporidium infection in children younger than 5 years: a meta-analyses study (98 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Bacteria
  • Disease

Eric R. Houpt spends much of his time researching Diarrhea, Internal medicine, Rotavirus, Incidence and Etiology. His research on Diarrhea frequently links to adjacent areas such as Epidemiology. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Giardia and Shigella, Shigellosis.

His study in Rotavirus is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Norovirus and Asymptomatic. His Incidence research includes elements of Astrovirus, Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli, Environmental health, Hygiene and Malnutrition. His studies in Etiology integrate themes in fields like Case-control study and Cryptosporidium.
