Graham A. W. Rook

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

• Immune system
• Internal medicine
• Gene

Graham A. W. Rook focuses on Immunology, Tuberculosis, Immune system, Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Disease. Immunity, Hygiene hypothesis, Arthritis, Rheumatoid arthritis and Interleukin 4 are subfields of Immunology in which his conducts study. His Tuberculosis research incorporates themes from Necrosis, Pulmonary fibrosis, Pathogenesis and Vaccination.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Context, Mycobacterium bovis, Raphe nuclei and Antigen in addition to Immune system. His Mycobacterium tuberculosis study incorporates themes from Tumor necrosis factor alpha, Virology, Interferon gamma, Microbiology and Immunopathology. His studies deal with areas such as Biodiversity and Anxiety as well as Disease.

His most cited work include:

• Validation of housekeeping genes for normalizing RNA expression in real-time PCR (841 citations)
• The implications of using an inappropriate reference gene for real-time reverse transcription PCR data normalization (525 citations)
• Suppression of airway eosinophilia by killed Mycobacterium vaccae-induced allergen-specific regulatory T-cells. (496 citations)

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

Graham A. W. Rook mainly investigates Immunology, Tuberculosis, Immune system, Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Antigen. The study of Immunology is intertwined with the study of Disease in a number of ways. His Tuberculosis research includes elements of Tumor necrosis factor alpha, Virology, Immunopathology and Immunotherapy.

His Immune system research focuses on Internal medicine and how it connects with Gastroenterology. His research in Mycobacterium tuberculosis intersects with topics in T cell, Lymphokine, Interferon gamma, Molecular biology and Interleukin 4. His Antigen research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Leprosy and Microbiology.

He most often published in these fields:

• Immunology (68.85%)
• Tuberculosis (32.08%)
• Immune system (20.61%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2004-2021)?

• Immunology (68.85%)
• Immune system (20.61%)
• Tuberculosis (32.08%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Immunology, Immune system, Tuberculosis, Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Hygiene hypothesis. The Immunology study combines topics in areas such as Disease and Inflammatory bowel disease. His Immune system study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Psychosocial, Gut flora, Early childhood and Allergy.

His work carried out in the field of Tuberculosis brings together such families of science as Immunopathology and Vaccination. Graham A. W. Rook has included themes like Tumor necrosis factor alpha, Interferon gamma, Antigen and Virology in his Mycobacterium tuberculosis study. The various areas that Graham A. W. Rook examines in his Hygiene hypothesis study include Anxiety, Multiple sclerosis, Evolutionary medicine and Hygiene.

Between 2004 and 2021, his most popular works were:

• The implications of using an inappropriate reference gene for real-time reverse transcription PCR data normalization (525 citations)
• Regulation of the immune system by biodiversity from the natural environment: An ecosystem service essential to health (311 citations)
• Tryptophan metabolism in the central nervous system: medical implications (304 citations)

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

• Immune system
• Internal medicine
• Gene

Immunology, Hygiene hypothesis, Immune system, Tuberculosis and Inflammatory bowel disease are his primary areas of study. His research brings together the fields of Disease and Immunology. The concepts of his Hygiene hypothesis study are interwoven with issues in Proinflammatory cytokine, Multiple sclerosis and Depression.

His Immune system study combines topics in areas such as Raphe, Context, Neuroscience and Environmental exposure. Graham A. W. Rook has researched Tuberculosis in several fields, including Pulmonary fibrosis and Lung. Graham A. W. Rook combines subjects such as Inflammation, Autoimmunity, Prebiotic and Probiotic with his study of Inflammatory bowel disease.
