Hamish McCallum mainly investigates Ecology, Devil facial tumour disease, Sarcophilus, Disease and Zoology.
Ecology connects with themes related to Extinction in his study.
His Sarcophilus study incorporates themes from Force of infection and Wildlife disease.
Hamish McCallum combines subjects such as Transmission, Psychodidae, Mass mortality and Longevity with his study of Disease.
His Zoology research incorporates themes from Red Queen hypothesis, Sexual reproduction and Genetic diversity.
His Tasmanian devil research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Animal ecology and Population ecology.
His most cited work include:
- How should pathogen transmission be modelled (879 citations)
- Detecting disease and parasite threats to endangered species and ecosystems (450 citations)
- Endemic Infection of the Amphibian Chytrid Fungus in a Frog Community Post-Decline (285 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Hamish McCallum mostly deals with Ecology, Disease, Zoology, Tasmanian devil and Devil facial tumour disease.
His work is dedicated to discovering how Ecology, Population ecology are connected with Predation and other disciplines.
His research integrates issues of Biodiversity and Endangered species in his study of Disease.
As part of the same scientific family, he usually focuses on Zoology, concentrating on Host and intersecting with Vector.
The Tasmanian devil study combines topics in areas such as Population decline, Cancer and Conservation biology.
His research in Devil facial tumour disease intersects with topics in Extinction and Wildlife disease.
He most often published in these fields:

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His main research concerns Ecology, Tasmanian devil, Devil facial tumour disease, Disease and Wildlife disease.
He regularly links together related areas like Arbovirus in his Ecology studies.
His study in Tasmanian devil is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Transmission and Cancer.
His Devil facial tumour disease study is concerned with the field of Sarcophilus as a whole.
His Disease study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Demography, Phascolarctos cinereus, Endangered species and Extinction.
Hamish McCallum has included themes like Disease ecology and Emerging infectious disease in his Wildlife disease study.
Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:
