Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Virus
  • Internal medicine
  • Gene

Guy Boivin mostly deals with Virology, Immunology, Human metapneumovirus, Virus and Respiratory tract infections. His work on Neuraminidase and Influenza A virus is typically connected to Oseltamivir as part of general Virology study, connecting several disciplines of science. In his research on the topic of Immunology, Enteritis, Septic shock, Parvoviridae Infections, Human parechovirus and Enterovirus is strongly related with Pneumonia.

His work carried out in the field of Human metapneumovirus brings together such families of science as Genetics, Paramyxoviridae and Disease. Guy Boivin regularly links together related areas like Immunogenicity in his Virus studies. Guy Boivin combines subjects such as Multiplex polymerase chain reaction, Intensive care medicine, Bronchiolitis, Asymptomatic and Pneumovirus with his study of Respiratory tract infections.

His most cited work include:

  • Virological Features and Clinical Manifestations Associated with Human Metapneumovirus: A New Paramyxovirus Responsible for Acute Respiratory-Tract Infections in All Age Groups (503 citations)
  • Quantitation of Cytomegalovirus: Methodologic Aspects and Clinical Applications (381 citations)
  • Human metapneumovirus infections in hospitalized children. (367 citations)

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

Guy Boivin focuses on Virology, Virus, Immunology, Human metapneumovirus and Oseltamivir. His work often combines Virology and Zanamivir studies. His Virus research incorporates elements of Mutant and Recombinant DNA.

His Human metapneumovirus study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Bronchiolitis, Paramyxoviridae and Pneumonia. The Oseltamivir study combines topics in areas such as Peramivir and Neuraminidase inhibitor. His studies in Ganciclovir integrate themes in fields like Human cytomegalovirus, Transplantation and Drug resistance.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Virology (69.36%)
  • Virus (39.31%)
  • Immunology (31.21%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Virology (69.36%)
  • Virus (39.31%)
  • Internal medicine (8.67%)

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

Guy Boivin mainly investigates Virology, Virus, Internal medicine, Recombinant DNA and Oseltamivir. His Virology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Polymerase, Immunization, Mutant, Immunogenicity and Virulence. His research in Virus intersects with topics in Human metapneumovirus, In vitro, Respiratory system and Reverse genetics.

His Community-acquired pneumonia, Colchicine, Confidence interval and Odds ratio study in the realm of Internal medicine connects with subjects such as Placebo. His Recombinant DNA research focuses on Wild type and how it connects with DNA polymerase. Other disciplines of study, such as Neuraminidase and Polymerase chain reaction, are mixed together with his Oseltamivir studies.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Modified cyclodextrins as broad-spectrum antivirals. (52 citations)
  • Impact of the Baloxavir-Resistant Polymerase Acid I38T Substitution on the Fitness of Contemporary Influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 and A(H3N2) Strains. (25 citations)
  • Clinical development of letermovir and maribavir: Overview of human cytomegalovirus drug resistance. (24 citations)

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

  • Virus
  • Internal medicine
  • Gene

His main research concerns Virology, Virus, Internal medicine, Vaccination and Zika virus. As a part of the same scientific family, Guy Boivin mostly works in the field of Virology, focusing on Polymerase and, on occasion, Ganciclovir, Drug resistance, Viral terminase complex, Human cytomegalovirus and Kinase activity. His research in the fields of Coinfection overlaps with other disciplines such as Oseltamivir.

His work deals with themes such as Quellung reaction and Pneumococcal vaccine, which intersect with Internal medicine. His Influenza vaccine study in the realm of Vaccination interacts with subjects such as Current season. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Ex vivo, Viremia, Male infertility, Infertility and Asymptomatic.
