Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Virus
  • Gene
  • Ecology

His primary areas of investigation include Virology, Phylogenetics, Infectious disease, Phylogenetic tree and Outbreak. His Virology research includes themes of National park, Genotype and Bacillus anthracis. His research investigates the connection between National park and topics such as Bushmeat that intersect with issues in Habitat destruction.

His Phylogenetics research incorporates elements of Evolutionary biology, Virus, Novel virus and Genetic diversity. The Phylogenetic tree study combines topics in areas such as Simian, Malaria, Gorilla and Simian immunodeficiency virus. The study incorporates disciplines such as Zoology and Disease reservoir in addition to Outbreak.

His most cited work include:

  • Pandemic human viruses cause decline of endangered great apes. (309 citations)
  • Pandemic human viruses cause decline of endangered great apes. (309 citations)
  • Investigating the zoonotic origin of the West African Ebola epidemic (239 citations)

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

Fabian H. Leendertz mainly focuses on Virology, Zoology, Virus, Outbreak and Phylogenetics. The Virology study which covers Gorilla that intersects with Bacillus anthracis. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Ecology, Host, Pandemic and Plasmodium.

His work carried out in the field of Outbreak brings together such families of science as Animal ecology and Immunology. Evolutionary biology is closely connected to Phylogenetic tree in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Phylogenetics. His studies in National park integrate themes in fields like Bushmeat and Tropical rainforest.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Virology (48.88%)
  • Zoology (19.73%)
  • Virus (16.59%)

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

  • Virology (48.88%)
  • Pandemic (5.83%)
  • Evolutionary biology (8.07%)

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

His main research concerns Virology, Pandemic, Evolutionary biology, Disease and Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2. His Virology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Clade, Subspecies, Treponema, Mastomys and Serology. His Evolutionary biology research includes elements of Phylogenetics and Phylogenetic tree.

His Phylogenetic tree study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Genome and DNA sequencing. His Disease research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Zoology, Genetics, Genetic correlation and Candidate gene. Fabian H. Leendertz combines subjects such as National park and Mycobacterium leprae, Leprosy with his study of Zoology.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • COVID-19: protect great apes during human pandemics. (23 citations)
  • Measles virus and rinderpest virus divergence dated to the sixth century BCE. (14 citations)
  • Risk of human-to-wildlife transmission of SARS-CoV-2. (13 citations)

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

  • Virus
  • Gene
  • Ecology

His primary areas of study are Virology, Wildlife, Pandemic, Zoology and 2019-20 coronavirus outbreak. His Virology study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Serology. His studies deal with areas such as Antigen, Immunogenicity, Biovar and Bacillus anthracis as well as Serology.

The concepts of his Wildlife study are interwoven with issues in Transmission, Disease and Threatened species. His Zoology research integrates issues from Virus and Host. The various areas that Fabian H. Leendertz examines in his 2019-20 coronavirus outbreak study include Betacoronavirus, Coronavirus disease 2019 and Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2.
