Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study Geert Smant is best known for:

Gene
Enzyme
Genetics

His research on Immune system is centered around Innate immune system and Immunity. He combines Innate immune system and Immune system in his studies. Geert Smant conducted interdisciplinary study in his works that combined Gene and Effector. His Effector study frequently links to other fields, such as Immunology. In his works, Geert Smant undertakes multidisciplinary study on Immunology and Immunity. While working in this field, Geert Smant studies both Ecology and Abiotic component. Geert Smant integrates Abiotic component with Ecology in his study. His work in Nematode is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Terra incognita. His Terra incognita study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Meloidogyne incognita.

His most cited work include:

Genome sequence of the metazoan plant-parasitic nematode Meloidogyne incognita (940 citations)
A Jasmonate Signaling Network Activates Root Stem Cells and Promotes Regeneration (181 citations)
A nematode expansin acting on plants (177 citations)

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

Immunology combines with fields such as Immune system and Biochemistry in his investigation. In his works, Geert Smant conducts interdisciplinary research on Immune system and Immunology.
