Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Immune system
  • Gene
  • Virus

Her primary areas of investigation include Fasciola hepatica, Immunology, Virology, Immune system and Liver fluke. Her Fasciola hepatica research incorporates themes from Thioredoxin and Cathepsin L1. Her study in the field of Antigen and T cell also crosses realms of Isotype and Interleukin 12.

Her research in Virology intersects with topics in Livestock, Haemonchus contortus, Ostertagia and Trichostrongylus. Her Immune system study incorporates themes from Proteases, Cathepsin L and Gene, Recombinant DNA. Grace Mulcahy works mostly in the field of Liver fluke, limiting it down to concerns involving Fasciolosis and, occasionally, Intermediate host and Seroconversion.

Her most cited work include:

  • Babesia divergens, a Bovine Blood Parasite of Veterinary and Zoonotic Importance (262 citations)
  • Fasciola hepatica cathepsin L-like proteases: biology, function, and potential in the development of first generation liver fluke vaccines. (223 citations)
  • Fasciola hepatica cathepsin L-like proteases: biology, function, and potential in the development of first generation liver fluke vaccines. (223 citations)

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

Grace Mulcahy mainly focuses on Fasciola hepatica, Immunology, Virology, Hepatica and Immune system. Her studies in Fasciola hepatica integrate themes in fields like Veterinary medicine, Cathepsin L1, Microbiology and Liver fluke. Immunology is closely attributed to Disease in her study.

In her work, Lymphocyte is strongly intertwined with Antibody, which is a subfield of Virology. Grace Mulcahy combines subjects such as Serology, Macrophage and Biochemistry with her study of Hepatica. The various areas that Grace Mulcahy examines in her Immune system study include Proteases, Cathepsin L, Antigen and Helminth protein.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Fasciola hepatica (41.67%)
  • Immunology (36.11%)
  • Virology (29.17%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2012-2020)?

  • Fasciola hepatica (41.67%)
  • Hepatica (23.61%)
  • Immunology (36.11%)

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

Fasciola hepatica, Hepatica, Immunology, Veterinary medicine and Fasciolosis are her primary areas of study. Grace Mulcahy has included themes like Glycan, Virology, Cathepsin L1 and Liver fluke in her Fasciola hepatica study. The study incorporates disciplines such as Livestock farming and Transcriptome in addition to Virology.

Her Hepatica research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Mannose, Serology, Parasitology and Incubation. Her Veterinary medicine research incorporates themes from Cryptosporidium parvum, Livestock, Animal science and Canis. Her Fasciolosis research includes themes of Peripheral blood mononuclear cell and Antigen.

Between 2012 and 2020, her most popular works were:

  • Immunomodulatory molecules of Fasciola hepatica: candidates for both vaccine and immunotherapeutic development. (113 citations)
  • Fasciola hepatica vaccine: we may not be there yet but we're on the right road. (101 citations)
  • Toxoplasma gondii in Ireland: seroprevalence and novel molecular detection method in sheep, pigs, deer and chickens. (37 citations)

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

  • Immune system
  • Gene
  • Virus

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Fasciola hepatica, Veterinary medicine, Immunology, Immune system and Herd. As a member of one scientific family, Grace Mulcahy mostly works in the field of Fasciola hepatica, focusing on Liver fluke and, on occasion, Helminth protein. The concepts of her Veterinary medicine study are interwoven with issues in Ostertagia ostertagi, Livestock, Calicophoron daubneyi and Grazing.

Her Immunology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Cell and Downregulation and upregulation. Her Immune system study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Virology. Her research in Virology intersects with topics in Livestock farming, Transcriptome, Fasciolosis and Pathogenesis.
